AR12769 & AR12770 in Ha With the Airylab HaT 3rd August

ar12769-ar12770-Ha-colour
I was pleased to be able to frame both active regions in one shot with this image taken earlier this morning.  The new active region on the limb was showing one spot when imaged, however looking later in the day there is actually a pair of decent sized spots.  The new active region appears to be quite dynamic and there was surging going on when the area was imaged.  Taken with the 8" Airylab HaT, 2.7x Airylab telecentric, Daystar Quark and FLIR IMX174 camera.  Pleased with how this image came out as my seeing doesn't usually support these larger apertures.
