Today a new region is getting nicely visible at the eastern limb. I imaged a nice closeup of it with a "Filaprom", a filament that extends accross the limb. Also a closeup with a 2x barlow of AR1234.

The images are made with my favorate SolarMax40 and the DMK 41AU02.AS. the closeups also use a Meade 140 2x barlow.

Clear skies,
