Yes, sunsopts are continuing to appear and I'm ejoying the chance to observe them. Sunspot 696 produced 9 M-class solar flares from 11/3-11/6. SOHO has been capturing the flurry of coronal mass ejections on coronagraph images.

I took this image of 696 on Sat. the 6th. Hazy day late afternoon. I tried focusing on the limb instead of the spot. Still didn't seem to help.
