Comments	It looked to me like everything had shrunk up since yesterday. The current SOHO photograph shows 758 is still on the limb but I can not see it at all. 759 looks smaller since the CME. The small trailing spots used to appear on the edge of the rice grain stricture but now they are both clearly in the void. The both look smaller and the one on the left has moved from 11:00 to 9:00. There is a new smudge trailing and above 759. The void around 762 has disappeared and the trailing spot has shrunk to near the limit of visibility. The void around 763 has mostly disappeared. The spot components look like they have moved closer together.
