Heya,
It was raining all morning with total cloud cover. Went to town and ran errands instead. But, to my surprise, around noon, the sky cleared up and seeing was pretty good. Managed to get some data on AR2733, it's starting to calm down and the umbra are fading, but the plage is still large and there's activity going on. There's some rather nice prominences around the limb, but one particularly interesting one making a show.
B&W:
Color:
150mm F8 Refractor
Daystar Quark Chromosphere & PST Etalon
ASI174MM + 0.5x Focal Reducer
Very best,
