Huge Sunspot AR2665

Since a couple of days and also next week, a very huge Sunspot (AR2665) is visible on the sun's surface. The spot is as big as 10x earth, which is about 120.000 km end to end. The spot is also responsible for some activity and resulted already in a M1.3 flare.
The picture below was taken when the sun was covered with a lot of clouds. Hopefully the next days it will be better to photograph the spot.
