Dave,
That prom looks really unusual. Almost grub like in shape. If anyone here saw the Dune 1984 movie they might think it looks like one of the Spacing Guild Navigators floating above the Sun. :-)

Great images Dave,
I'd noticed your images on the BAA solar section gallery and only just made the connection (I think!) that it's you?!
I'd been wondering about your equipment and, having just enjoyed looking at your website, am now fully informed!
Thanks,
Nic
