Sol 20220208

It should go without saying but I have been admiring all the solar images posted by everyone recently while twiddling my thumbs because of the persistent cloud and rain. Has been a few breaks that have allowed me to catch some photons and today was one of them, thankfully, as I wanted to catch the huge prom. The visual of the prom at 100X revealed a wealth of fine filigree detail that I managed to capture but not as fine as was evident in the eyepiece.
Since imaging earlier today I've learnt that the prom has erupted and is no more, images on GONG show the event.
Anyway here are some images taken today. the white light images were taken with an 127mm achro and Baader filter. The Ha were taken with my usual set up of 85mm F10.5 PST Stage 1 conversion.
