I was also very lucky to witness quick but majestic prominence during wednesday. This has been my first real season with solar Ha imaging. Years ago I had Coronado Solarmax II, but it was my Icarus wings. Photo with Lunt60THa ST and ASI178MM.

The Lunt 60 and the ASI-178 have along with yourself done a sterling-job in capturing this event so clearly and with the excellent processing too.
Thanks vm for sharing you first season's pic.

Re: Sun in Ha today 9.6.2021
SassySun!,
You caught an eruptive prominence on the NW limb above a receding active region! I got an alert on my SpaceWeatherLive app in the early morning hours telling me an event occurred. A C Class flare. It may have been what kicked this up.
That's a very nice image. You caught it superbly!
And I have a SolarMax II 60. And a SolarMax II 90. Both double stacked.

Re: Sun in Ha today 9.6.2021
Thank you everyone! I have always admired positive and supportive feedback on SolarChat. I assume this smaller shot was first part of the prominence, before full disc image. It all went so fast!
