Solar Observing at POW at 1500hrs July 21/10.
Weather: Partly cloudy, 27 degrees Celsius, light wind.
Telescope: 150 mm reflector with 2x Barlow, 25mm and 9mm eyepieces.
Camera: Kodak C190 EasyShare with mount.
Observing: Sunspot 1087 was not visible through my scope, but according to Spaceweather.com it is still there but is decreasing.
Sunspot 1089 (The Bear Claw) was clearly visible as a triangle of dark spots. It was visible at low power and really showed up nice with the 2x Barlow and then with the 9 mm eyepiece. Apparently this one is suppose to change shapes in the coming days so it should be fun to keep track of.
