Mosaic AR1726 for April 22, 2013

Today's image is a composite of several processed images taken with the PST-DS of the area around sunspot AR1726.  Each capture was 400 frames, stacked in Registax 5.1 and processed in Registax 6.  Final processing was performed in Photoshop.  AR1726 has the potential to produce earth-directed X-Class flares.
