Description

Hot of the press! Imaged this morning, after imaging Jupiter. All I needed to do was change the tracking rate from sidereal to solar and put on an off-axis 100 mm OD5 filter over the 350 mm aperture of my Dobson, and I was set. 
This region has more than 15 individual sunspots in area of 120 MH, roughly 365 million square kilometers, or 71% of the surface area of the earth.

20% of 10,000 frames stacked in AS. Almost no cropping. This filled my FOV.
