Surge activity ex AR3163 23-12-22

Post by Martin_S »

AR3163 has rounded the limb but there was plenty of surge activity to capture this morning in Brisbane .Todays weather conditions were not the best for imaging, but I managed a 51 minute time lapse animation of what was AR3163. The activity was too good to miss in spite of the turbulent and cloudy conditions.

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas .

Martin

Fantastic.


I do not look at the sky with the eyes of an astronomer, but of a person looking for the beauty of nature.
