AR 673 from September 19, 2004

Hi all,

The sky cleared just long enough for me to get two images of AR 673. Considering the clouds and rain we had, I'm quite happy with the result. I'm not sure what the linear feature is across the top of the spot, but it showed up in both images. We are entering the "dry and clear" part of our year, so hopefully the image quality could improve.

Here is AR673 from 9-19-04 in H-Alpha. Yours is an excellent shot. Wish I'd had the seeing to achieve the resolution in your image!

best,

Alan and Paul,

Great images of the AR0673 sunspot group. You have captured much detail across the image. I look forward to your future images.
