The bridge in 11289 shows up really well in the C11 image, quite an intricate structure. That long, looping prominence in the Sept 16 23:43 UT images is awesome.

Thanks Dennis, you are very kind. The 2.5x Powermate does seem to push the little SM40 a bit but its still only f/18.75... not quite up there with the f/25 to f/38s of a lot of planetary imagers. But then again I suppose seeing is generally worse during the day too

The departing AR 1289 looks very impressive!

Shame its not clear, Matt. Its another glorious day here (still a bit windy though). I'd like to do it all again, but I have some other commitments that have to happen today unfortunately.
