The sky was overcast with a layer of thin clouds/high fog this morning, which did a good job of almost, but not quite, blotting out the sun. It served as a good light filter, and as I was driving in to work, I could clearly see (without going blind) a cluster of dark sunspots on the surface of the sun. It looked like a blunt apostrophe just a hair's breadth above the exact center of the solar disc. It was a spiffy-keen sight, because really, how often do you get to see sunspots with the naked eye?
