Hi Gary - thanks for the encouraging words.
Hi Remus - Yes, it was largely clear skies. Was under the Sun for 1hr 45 minutes. Have taken video to do time lapse clip. Just feeling lazy to do it now.

26 Oct 12 - There were gaps of clear skies in the morning. The sunspot of interest was 1598 (the inner sunspot at 4 O'clock position). Throughout the week it had potential for M and X-Class flares. It is now decaying.
Here is the full disk at 11:18 AM
