Nice pics, Matt - I just came in from admiring these two features!

Because of its curvature and proximity to the limb, that filament has a lovely 3D quality to it. Meanwhile the unnumbered active area is still enormous, with lots of tiny detail around what looks like a great rent in the solar surface: you've captured it well. The increasingly bright part at one end may even be developing into a focus of the activity.
