Hello guys,

this is the largest prominence from yesterday. The seeing wasn't great and the picture reflects that, but I manually selected the best 35 frames of 1000 and the result isn't that bad wink

Ciao all

Great detail & contrast Luca! 8)
Keep those shots coming, as it seems I won't be seeing much of anything for the next 10 days...(besides CLOUDS) forecast is "clouds & thunderstorms"...
Thanks for sharing!

Hello Gianluca
WOW, what a good shot.

I too captured this prominence from my home in Greenville, SC. I had the day off from work so thought I would play with my NEW Coronado PST. My photo is only a single shot using my Fuji S-3000 digital camera with eyepiece projection with a Meade 20mm Super plossl attached my means of a Digi-T adapter into a Shorty 2X barlow. But still not too shabby.

Enjoy, Arthur Stratton
