Today's large SW prominence

Hello all,

I had another go at a prominence late this afternoon (inspired by my recent success - I have not been good at imaging prominences in the past).
This prom is rounding over the SW limb so it will be gone very soon.

Lunt80/SS/2.5 Powermate/DMK31 (1/45 sec, Gamma 211, Gain 714 - best 123 images from 1344 in Registax).

More from today here - http://www.pbase.com/mattwastell/image/143407877

Nice one Matt, good to see you enjoying this most welcome Brisbane sunshine! The jet stream map showed less than ideal conditions today; did you notice this at all?

Cheers

Dennis
