Yea, the sun is soo quiet.
I had a look at the sun yesterday in white light (thousand oaks filter) and I have to say i didnt see anything worth noting.
Nice images.

I must admit this is my fault. Having recently purchased a PST I have ensured that solar activity will slow down for the customary period of 2 - 3 months :)

Those are fine images as always Theo.

I had a look at the sun in white light today and it was very quiet.
Loads more detail visible though with the other filters.

Paul,
Congrats on the new scope! Nice timing coming into the summer!

Michael.
