Sun on May 11th

Well it seems that it was much ado about nothing after all!

The active region that originated the massive CME of the may 5th has withered into a series of faculae but no sunspots

After Mike's great pictures, here is my attempt:

So we are going to need some more patience for cycle 24

Ciao all and thanks for watching

Luca

Luca,

Very nice image, even if the sun has been disappointing.

I'm waiting on my Lunt LS100 filter, hopefully the sun will start cooperating soon.
