Description

First time observing and imaging in white light in quite a while. Couldn't pass up the chance to look at the biggest sunspot so far in Solar Cycle 25. This spot is really incredible, I wish conditions were better, my transparency was poor and had high level clouds.

I shot all these images with my Bresser 152mm achromat and ASI533MM cam. However I added a 2.5x Powermate as well as 5x Powermate for the close ups. The posted specs are for the full disc with no barlow. 10 frames stacked. The close up shots are spec'd in the revision info.
