Default Sunspot 930 Dec 10 06

Hi all here are a few Sunspot photos of 930. I took these photos using a Meade 60mm reflector mounted on a ds goto eq mount. I used a Sun filter for the shots, no other filters were used. The photos were taken with a sony cybershot 7.0 in auto night mode.

They were all cleaned up in photoshop 9.0. Thanks Phil I was looking for something to do while supper was cooking. hope you enjoy.

Great shots Paul.

I've got a solar filter on my Christmas wish list, and I've been very good this year.

Paul, excellent shots! I love it...the Sun in three different colors. And the third one up close and personal.

I'm partial to the Sun, so I really like those. Thanks for sharing those.
