Seeing was very good this morning BUT apparently I set up next to a wasp nest in my retaining wall. I had 5 or so buzzing around. I avoided getting stung and barely finished. I didn't shoot flat for the closer shot.
Full Disk:
Lunt 100 PT with 100 Fha, Basler acA5472-17um. This camera is great for FD with my lunt.

I second Eric's comment!
I love the last image. Viewed full size the filaments interactions with the plage of AR12849 is striking. It looks almost fluid! Beautiful work.

This is a really nice set of images Alan, especially so viewed full size. Really like the full disks.
