Prom on the Sun. 2 April & 3 April

[John W (John Wilkinson)]

Hi All, I captured this image of a prominence on the Sun today. It has been hanging around for a while now. Conditions were poor and I had to wait to get a pic thru light cloud late in the day. Single exposure with a Canon 550d camera attached to a Lunt 100 Ha scope. Thanks for viewing. I hope you saw it. Cheers, John W.

PS. I have added another pic taken next day on April 3rd. This one was taken mid morning and the same prom is still there. It appears to be in a slightly different position but is not (due to Sun position being different in sky).

Nice pic!

How many ms for your exposure?

Don't you mean Prom on Sat 2 April?

Excellent shot!

Nice captures John, thought the large one might lift off today, glad it hasn't as it's providing some great visual views.
