Solar Imaging Session - December 28, 2012

The sky this morning was partly clear but seeing is not very good. Add to the frustration are pesky clouds covering the Sun almost all the time :( Nevertheless, this didn't stop me from doing solar work but of course under poor image quality. New AR11638 Sunspot Group is large solitary group at the edge of NE limb, AR11635 Sunspot Group is about to exit the NW limb. Lots of moderate sized eruptive prominence around the Sun's limb but are not that spectacular. As I was about to image in white light, clouds cover becomes thicker and thicker and I was able to image only AR11638 Sunspot group only and under poor seeing condition as well :(
