Hi All
I just got home and caught this nice big prom.
I only got one shot before some thin cloud rolled over, when that had gone the sun was behind next doors house.
It was a short lived prom you can catch it on the SDO dashboard.
Nice to see some activity.
Cheers Rod

Very nice! I caught it visually. It didn't last long. I was hoping someone imaged it. Cool!!

Re: Nice arching prom
It formed and dissipated pretty quick. The speeds that plasma had to move is mind boggling.

Re: Nice arching prom
Thanks everyone
It's just nice to see some action.
We have been clouded out, rained on, or the sun has just been blank when there has been a break for the past few weeks.
I only captured 500 frames for this image and ASi3 said only 20 percent were above the 50 percent line but scanning through the images they all looked fine so I did three stacks one at 5 percent, one at 20 percent and this one at 80 percent of the images.
This one came out by far the best with a much smoother background so I could sharpen the image more.
I just thought this was interesting, don't always believe the software even though it is very good.
Cheers Rod
