Sunspots at Sunset
I did'nt set out this evening to take pictures of sunspots, I just set out to take some shots of the sunset over my hometown of Wakefield, West Yorkshire UK.
However when I analysed some of the shots I saw markings on the sun, so I checked up on the Web and low and behold the marks are indeed sunspots.
To give the group the official name they are sunspot 1164 and has a "beta-gamma-delta" magnetic field that harbors energy for X-class solar flares.
You really need to view this image in full size to see the spots really clearly.
