[AZ-Observing] Re: [AZ-Observing]Sun Spot

Observing Sunspot 564 at 66x and 125x, it is an extremely complex grouping
of four large spots and a lot is going on in the area between them. The 2nd
group preceding to the east is a nice group also. The main group is plainly
visible naked eye thru the Baader filter.
