here's an image I took yesterday with my 254/1200 Newton Telescope and my EOS 550D It shows the sunspots 1260 (more Spots) and 1261 (larger Spots). The sun and the background are edited differently using GIMP, so you can see the sunspots clearly (also the places where the solar matter has fallen back on the sun's surface) and you can also see lighter areas where the have been protuberances, which you can also see in images of eg SDO.
