Horsehead prom maybe.

Post by solar »

Seeing let the show down as you will see in the last two images. It started to come good while I was looking at a nice prominence, and it then crashed.. I was lucky to get these as all the rest were no good.

Ralph:
Super prominence images, the last one looks like a standing Elephant in a circus.
My God, one starts seeing crazy things in clouds and protuberances.
Best regards,
Eric.
