SE prom short animation 07-02-2021

We had a really windy day in Brisbane, but I was determined to catch the massive prominence on the South Eastern limb of the Sun.
I only captured 18 minutes worth of animation images due to intermittent rolling clouds, but it was worth it. The wind was that bad I went back to single stack imaging to keep my exposures as short as possible.

Wow fantastic result! I’ve been desperate to get my pst out to have a look at this prom before it disappears but with the current Sydney weather I gotta live vicariously :D
