Hi.
It was cloudy , but a good sized sucker hole tempted me to image the sun today. Sure enough, as soon as i had my gear fully setup, the hole was no more. I waited for another hole and was rewarded for my patience. Seeing, though, was not great at around 2/5. Transparency was at ~2/5 with high clouds. The first photo is a combination of a (subtle) high gamma surface image and a prominence image. The second image is when I'm too lazy (to take a surface image). I'd appreciate if you would let me know which looks better. thanks
equipment used: ASI120MM-S / TMB92 f5.5 / Quark
cheers,
Mike

Wow! these are fantastic Mike, I like either version of the prominence, both have their plus points

The prom images are very good Mike, and each show the features slightly differently. They are close, but I prefer the pic with the chromosphere masked out as i find the bright disk competes with the prom too much.
