Another early image as the sky looks a bit dark and stormy first thing, so grab a gap when you can....
Sunspot AR12403 has a 'beta-gamma-delta' magnetic field that harbors energy for X-class solar flares. So far, however, this large sunspot has not lived up to its potential for strong flares

Third time set up today after being rained out, at least the heavy storm seems to have cleared the air a bit and big blue bits showing now.

The early cloudy safety shot went in the bin as after lunch the clouds vanished to show large blue patches....just before it got hazy and seeing went in the bin as well.
