In addition to a crackling new active region on the sun there have been some nice prominences gracing the solar limb. Captured yesterday morning with my solarmax 90 and Zeiss APQ130 at f22.

best,
Alan

Hi Alan: An amazing presentation, the amount of detail is quite stunning.
Hopefully, in about 8 days, you may be able to capture a huge prominence as
AR 10960 rotates over the Sun's western limb. Thanks for posting, Dan

Very nice sunscape my friend!

The usual smooth processing completes the work.

Thanks for showing it Alan.

PS I've opened the solar hunting season, but the weather is so bad here that I have had the pleasure to see the 960 only for a few seconds among clouds. I hope the weather clears before it disappears behind the edge sad
