Super shots Dave. Clouds didn't part here for more than a few minutes yesterday so it's good to get a view of the sunspots here.

That's extraordinary detail you're getting from the PST!

Feels like I'm hovering about 100,000 miles away! Nice shot Dave.

Super detail Dave.
Whuld like the image to be a little brighter though, if that were possible.
BTW, was that in double-stack mode on the PST?
