About this image

AR3664 as seen two days apart (9th and 11th of May). Cloud cover prevented anything on May 10. By the 11th the sunspot group was rather foreshortened, as it approached the solar limb. Accordingly, the lower image has been stretched longitudinally to try and match the view from two days before.
