We report observations of several features associated with the impacts A, C, E, H, K and L using CompuScope CCD800 camera attached to the 35cm D/f=15 Cassegrain telescope (unfiltered), as dark spots. The feature A was observed on Saturday 16 from 22:03 to 23:07 UT and Monday 18 from 23:23 to Tuesday 19 1:43 UT as a weak, extended feature (approx. 5 arcsec).

The feature C was observed on Tuesday 19 0:18 to 1:43 UT (approx. 3 arcsec). The feature E was observed from Monday 18 22:33 to Tuesday 19 1:43 UT as a very sharp, strong dark spot (approx. 3 arcsec).

The feature H was observed on Monday 18 from 22:33 to 23:56 UT stronger than C and A and roughly the same size as A.

The feature L was observed once on Wednesday 20 at 00:30 as a very strong and extended dark feature (approx. 8 arcsec). Features K and H are observed at the limbs East and West, respectively.

Unfortunatly bad weather conditions prevented us from getting more and better images during the impacts period.
