Sun 6th Nov
6th Nov (Australia). Managed to get one image of the AR 2781 today. This single exposure image was taken with a Canon 550d camera thru a Lunt 100 Ha scope. Taken thru light cloud and a rough atmosphere (I had to wait a few hours for a reasonable patch of sky). There is some flaring around this AR and you can also see AR 2780 in the upper right part of the pic. Thanks for viewing.

Re: Sun 6th Nov
Update on AR 2781 Nov 6th. 2020
Report appeared on SpaceWeather.com...
So far, the strongest solar flare from AR2781 has been a C7-class explosion at 0022 UT on Nov. 5th. X-rays and UV radiation from the flare ionized the top of Earth's atmosphere, causing a brief low-frequency radio blackout over the Pacific Ocean and Australia.
Mariners and ham radio operators in the region might have noticed signals fading, especially at frequencies below 10 MHz.
More C-class flares are almost guaranteed in the hours ahead, with a slight change of even stronger M-class flares.

7th Nov. Had to wait till 7th Nov to get a pic of this sunspot group at 540 nm. Single exposure again with Canon 550d. Looks like an interesting group.
Thanks for viewing, regards John W.
