 One
            large single spot adorns the sun today. But it is in a very complex
            magnetic field and has even flared recently. Here is the view
            with the LS100 in Halpha.

Lets start
            with the full disk. You can see one active region with a single
            round sunspot, and several tiny sub sunspots surrounding.

            


            
 

            
The Proms
            today are smaller, but some have some interesting details

            


            
 

            
At 3x, the
            details in the large spot are superb.

            


            
 

            
Here are three
            close ups at 3x of some of the proms:

Finally, a
            shot at 3x in the red wing of Halpa to show a view similar to
            white light. No really obvious Ellerman Bombs were seen today.
