Big Sunspot AR3664 AR3668

Sunspot AR366/3668 is about 1200MH big and was also responsable for a flare X2.1 this morning. When lookng at the sunspot you will see a lot of details: umbra, penumbra, fibrils, umbraldots, lightbridges and granulation. It's one of my few pictures with such clear granulation.

Barlow x2
Filter: Solarfilter ND3.8, OIII filter and IR/UV cut filter
