Christmas Day dawned clear and sunny.
This required some extra organisation of the day to include some sun imaging. There really wasn't enough time to do more than a quick full disk.
We ended up with a disk at 8:44amand after returning from lunch time celebrations we grabbed another disk as the sun was setting behind the house at 6:33pm.
We had noticed a new incoming region right on the NE limb and a significant growth in a prominence in the SE.
About 12 hours later, this SE prominence took off dramatically - unfortunately there were clouds here this morning so we missed the action.
Here is the SDO image of the event.
