Today’s H-alpha image shows all six of the active regions seen on NASA’s SDO image albeit AR4383 and AR4382 are not particularly well seen. The sunspot image shows those small regions to better advantage.

Below, the annotated sunspot image shows all six active regions more clearly.

Today’s prominences, like yesterdays, are mostly low level and not particularly impressive. There is a dark filament near the sun’s western limb (see the H-alpha image) that promises more prominence activity over the next few days.
