About this image

Sun still low in sky and lots of atmosphere. Best 10% of 100frames. Stacked, histogram stretch and "light touch" sharpening.

Very pronounced Sunspot grouping and increasing surface details.

As with other solar images - i have changed the image to colour and turned down the blue channel to make a nice pleasing sunny colour.

Used as part of BSc project submission!
