It looks like you may have picked up some ellerman bombs in that second image. See those bright points very close to the big spot! ?

Hi Mark

Many thanks, it’s nice to get a chance as the weather has been awful for weeks when not raining, just cloud, but today was great. Bring on more activity and warmer weather
