Nice, lots of lovely detail. There has not been a lot going on on the Sun recently so its nice you found something interesting. I wanted to show some friends a sunspot weekend before last (we can do that here in France) and there was diddly on offer.

Duncan; thanks!

This one is still nicely placed and should be visible until Sunday when it will go behind the limb again.  Try it out.
