The Sun on August 14, 2022

After a long break due to weather and other commitments, I finally had time to image the Sun again, today. AR3081, towards the top of this image, could produce Earth-directed solar flares. I will be off to the Isle of Palms for a vacation next week. The solar gear will not make the trip, but I hope to have the ability to image night time objects while I am there.
