Clear skies, but the seeing was poor.  Another spotless day.  Not much to see on the Sun with the decreased seeing conditions.  The current spotless streak stands at 21 days.  the two previous streaks were 28 and 25 days, interrupted only by a short 2 day region, so we are looking if this will repeat or if we are in for a longer streak this time around.

Clear skies with good seeing today.  Another spotless day.  However, the filament in the NW and fainter one in the SW are still visible in Ha.  Solar activity remains Very Low.

A break in the clouds with poor seeing today.  Another spotless day for the Sun. However a few small proms at the Eastern limb and a few filaments in the SE and North.  Three full disk images in the normal wavelengths.

Today’s session was not good.  I had to image through some clouds which impacted the images, especially the CaK. This resulted in the fact that some artifacts might show.   Another spotless day.  A good sized prominence could be observed at the SE limb, and the NW limb showed some smaller and fainter proms.

Patches of clear skies, with good seeing, allowed a good observing session.  The Sun is spotless today but a few faint proms are visible and a nice filament can easily be made out near the NE limb in Ha.  Today full disk images in the three wavelengths.

Another spotless Sun.  A few proms in the NE, East and the NW.  The Sun is quiet today.

Another spotless day with Very Low solar activity.  The filament in the NW remains, and is starting to approach the NW limb.

Clear skies with good seeing, but no spots to see today.  Solar activity is Very Low.  Some very faint and small proms can be seen around the solar disk as well as a few small filaments, notable in the Southern hemisphere. Did not notice any new reversed polarized areas today.

Clear skies with a spotless Sun.  A faint small prom is visible at the NE limb as well as a small filament in the Southern hemisphere. Other than this, the Sun is quiet.

Clear skies again with a spotless Sun.  I did not notice any filaments or proms.  However, a few small reverse polarized areas, visible as small plages in the CaK image, can be observed in the Southern as well as Northern hemisphere.
