The same group of sunspot as imaged elsewhere in this gallery, responsible for extreme solar and aurora activity during October/November 2003.

This image shows very fine detail within the sunspot group and some interesting colourisation which I can only assume is an artifact of the camera/imaging.
Camera:Logitech QuickCam Pro 4000
Aperture:80mm
