A view of the Sun taken on 19th September 2025 showing just how many changes can take place in a few days!

As it's been a couple of months since I last imaged the Sun, I took this image in 'white light' on 13th September.   Only a couple of sunspots were visible, giving a relatively quite appearance to the solar disc.
