Today’s H-alpha solar image shows new prominences along the northeastern and western solar limbs. Both of these prominences show large arcs of sun stuff leaving the solar chromosphere at one end with the ejected material falling back into the sun at the other end.

The sunspot image shows AR4087 reaching the western solar limb and about to disappear to the sun’s far side. AR4094 has become too faint to see in my photo, but it is still visible in NASA’s images – as I say, NASA has nicer toys than I have. AR4098 has become more complex even in the last day, it now overshadows AR4090.

Of note, my sunspot image is taken around the H-alpha spectral line, and it shows the NE prominence surprisingly well.

The two largest prominences from the H-alpha image are highlighted below.
