Eruption captured on Sun

[John W]

Hi all, I was lucky to capture an eruptive prominence on the Sun today 22nd Sept from Central Victoria over a 3 hr period. All 3 single exposure images thru a Solarmax II 60 mm scope (SS) and Canon 550d camera. First was at 11 am AEST, second at 1 pm and third at 2 pm. There is some rotation of the Sun during this time so look carefully. North is roughly up.
Than:)ks for viewing.
