Full Disk and closeup of AR3038 and NW Prom 6/24/2022

Post by rigel123 »

Before I start processing the 1 1/2 hour animation I captured of the NW Prom I wanted to post these quick shots of the full disk and closeups of the prom. After I finished I decided to take an actual look at the sun so popped in my Lunt Zoom ( BTW, I may sell my Arcturus Binoviewers as I think my eyes are just too close together to use them as they won't collapse quite enough to get the eyepieces right where I need them!!) and the view was great. The interesting area was a very bright area in that large prom on the NW limb that was much brighter visually than on my computer screen or in my captures. So I have enhanced that area in processing to try and mimic what it looked like through the eyepiece. It persisted all morning long and I think Chris (in this post: viewtopic.php?p=342731&hilit=chris#p342731 ) noticed something similar. Maybe just a brighter area of the same prom or something behind or in front of the main prom. Interesting to say the least. Lunt LS60T DS, ASI174MM and Meade 3X TeleXtender for closeups. BTW, I did not need to enhance that spot in the inverted image, I thought the darkness of that area was probably representative of it in the visual look compared to the surrounding prom.

Thanks James, Stu and Mark. I haven’t figured out what that bright spot is yet James. I have an animation that AS!3 was cooking last night so maybe I’ll get some clues this morning when I finish the animation.
