Some nice filaments today - 11 April 2010

Hello

I have been struggling with a cold this weekend but a handful of good cold and flu tablets and a bundy or two lifted my spirits - so I looked at the Sun.

It was great to see different types of filaments (I did not know there were differences - there are at least a dozen?!).

The first pic is a stock standard filament as I understand them.

The second pic is of a Quiescent Filament - 'a big blanket' of suspended gas. I got a lot more detail than 2 days ago when conditions were poorer. Image from 2 days ago here - http://www.pbase.com/mattwastell/image/123443101

Lunt 60mm Ha, 2.5 Powermate, DMK and processed in R5.
