AR12648 in Good Seeing - 8th April

It was probably the best seeing i've had all year so far, and so decided it was time to get the 0.2m Airylab HaT out for the season and get up close on our star.  This active region didn't have any spots visible, more an area of plage, but there was still a lot of nice detail, especially when the image is viewed full size.  A double stacked rear mounted etalon was used to increase the contrast along with the PGR GigE IMX249 camera and the Daystar Interference eliminator.
