Double-Arch Capture

Post by rray6 »

Hi All,
I was able to catch the nice double-arched prom this morning as many of you other did. This region threw out a number of X-Class flares all week and it was exciting to see this arch as it was going around the edge. I took so many videos that I almost ran out of disk space. Still have many more to go through and process. I did this with my Lunt 80mm and a 2.5x Powermate.

Last night as I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky, I thought to myself -- "Where the heck is the ceiling???"

Excellent image - we were very lucky to have so many loops over the past day or so. This one looks very bright- well captured.

Wonderful post flare loops. Let's hope this AR comes around again for more fireworks in a couple of weeks.
