Animations: M-class flare and prominences
This season started for me almost a month later than it did last year, but equally well. Great seeing on Saturday and quite good on Sunday.
Everything captured with a 90 mm refractor + pressure-tuned etalon, PGR Chameleon 3 mono (ICX445), processed with Stackistry and ImPPG. 30-second intervals in time-lapses.
Class M5.3 flare in AR 2644 (maximum at 04/2 8:04 UTC), 0:46 h total:
Solar event list and descriptions can be found at http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/products/solar ... nt-reports.
Smoky prominences, 0:53 h total:
Active Region 2645, chromo- to photosphere transition, made by gradually lowering the etalon pressure:
Minor activity in AR 2645, including penumbral waves, 1:42 h total (click to view, takes a while to load):

Very nice results! Thanks for sharing them with us.
BTW. Where to read about your modification of 90mm refractor + pressure tuned etalon?
