The morning began with overcast skies that by 2PM were mostly clear. Today’s imaging was done at the solar telescope’s native focal length – 400mm without the Barlow that I have decided adds nothing to the image quality or resolution.
Today’s H-alpha image, below and on the left shows striking prominences along the sun’s east and southeastern limbs. The sunspot image shows little new save for sunspot region AR3912.
The large prominences are highlighted in the cropped image below. Those are impressive solar plasma streams.
