First Sun in 2021

 

It was mid-January before I got out for some more solar imaging.  Things had quieted down but there were still some sunspots, filaments and prominences.  Hoping for more activity soon.

Last Solar Images of 2020

 

These are the last solar images of 2020, taken a few days after Christmas.  I hope for continued solar activity and that things on Earth will begin to calm down.
