Re: Sunspots on 26/8/21
I don't know - I think your work is kind of "spotty"....
....
See what I did there? Dad joke, and I am not a dad!
Seriously though, nice work - I need to observe the sun more often.

Re: Sunspots on 26/8/21
AR12860 looks very impressive.
I wish it were clear over here in order to take the telescope out and observe it. Oh well, next time.
Thanks for sharing your beautiful image!

Hi Marios. A very nice job of sketching AR 2859 and AR 2860. Here is the Raben Systems solar map which shows the excellent accuracy (accomodating for telescope optics and viewing angle) of your work:
Thanks for sharing this work with us Marios, and the best of wishes for many clear skies.Marshall
