Subject: Nice Sunspot Group


For all with an interest in white-light solar observation, there's a
nice group of sunspots on the sun's south-following quadrant. I
counted 22 visible spots this morning using a 102mm telescope at 53x.
None of the spots are particularly large; but the group itself is of
good size.

P.S. Observing the sun now will provide practice for the upcoming
Mercury transit ;-)
