Sunspots AR1967 & 1968 through an Identi-view Class 'A' solar filter (white light). A followup photo to yesterday's shot of the giant Sunspots on the Sun, as they rotate slowly toward the limb of the Sun. This photo has bigger image scale to make it easier to see detail in the Sunspots.

Processing: Photoshop Lightroom 5 - crop, lower exposure, increase clarity.
