viewed quiet Sun (Blue Mountains)

We enjoyed some solar observing.

Tony set up the Solar Max system with Rhonda's assistance while I fetched John Repeat Dance.

Did not see any apparent sun spots in white light in the Oberwerk binoculars. Spaceweather.com said there was one, a tiny cluster, designated 2636, but I couldn't see anything.

yours truly viewing with the Coronado H-alpha

Nice proms, filaments, and plages with the hydrogen alpha.
