Didn't have room in my original post for tagging (I guess sometimes I talk a bit more than I should), so I'm doing it here.

I took this image of our friendly neighborhood star earlier today. That big sunspot is apparently throwing off solar flares pretty regularly.

Captured with my SkyWatcher 72ED telescope, QHY 168C camera, and Thousand Oaks solar film.

Reminder: do not point your eyes or your equipment at the sun without proper protection!

Sitting in a pub beer garden on a hill overlooking a place called red wharf bay having a drink and just chilling in the sun.

A blissful day of relaxation... Doesn't get much better than this for the middle of the week.

Had a lovely day in the sun at a car boot sale / plant exchange at a farm 2 villages (10km)* away.
Had lots of nice chats, sold a few surplus plants, met interesting people - but was completely exotic because I came by bicycle with a little trailer.
Sure, if it had been a commercial enterprise a proper stall and more plants would be necessary, but there were no commercial traders just locals.
Many visitors came by bike though.

Went over the Qld/NSW border and found this stunning beach in northern NSW.
