[John W (John Wilkinson)]

26th Oct. A prominence erupted today on the Sun's NE limb just before midday- it lasted for only about 15 minutes. I managed to image the eruption - conditions were not the best but it was spectacular. I had to overexpose the surface in order for the eruption to show up. Lunt 100 Ha scope with Canon 550d camera. Single exposures of 1/80 sec.

The last image shows the Sun's southern hemisphere with some sunspots and flares (ARs are numbered).

Thanks for viewing.
