My partner Mike will be going away on holiday soon and hopefully my skies will clear so that I can provide more solar images. Mike has been doing a wonderful job getting great solar images in the last few weeks. Right at this moment the sun has gone quiet but hopefully the solar activity will pick up by this weekend. See this article titled 'Quiet Sun' on Space Weather.com. http://spaceweather.com/

This could be my last post until July as I will be a long way away from my scopes for the next couple of months . Hopefully Bill's sky's clean up soon , I am missing his images !
