And it does look like ol' Sol finally got the memo - there have been
some rather impressive sunspots in the last few weeks.

Here's one I photographed last month using thin clouds as a solar
filter. Really need to go buy some welder's glass... The currently
visible sunspot appears to be the same one I photographed, one solar
rotation later.

I'm impressed - you either had perfect conditions or you're really good
at it. Or both. Post more sunspots!
