April 6, 2013

Large sunspot again easily seen in the photo taken in the afternoon on April 6, 2013 using my Meade ETX-125 Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope and my Canon PowerShot SX10IS camera.  I also found three smaller sunspots in the photo.  More detail can be seen in the larger sunspot and more smaller spots can be seen because this telescope has a 127mm aperture and 1900 mm focal length.
