Solar Proms - 2017Apr18

I had the opportunity to shoot some Solar Ha this afternoon. Thanks to clouds I sort of ended up with a time-lapse of the most prominent prom. I managed to capture five 1000 frame videos between clouds over the span of three hours. In that time frame the prom launched off the surface (on the right), hovered over the surface then descending back to the surface (on the left), per the mosaic below.
Details:
QHY 183C, Lunt 60, Single Stacked, Celestron AVX mount
Best 5x10 of 1000 frames of video

Very nicely done.
Glad to see someone else with a Lunt.
I love mine

I don't know, but it best be fireproof.
Beautiful!
No more skunk whackin, Ya Hear!

It is easy to forget how small a speck of rock we're on until we realize prominences and sunspots on our home star are often considerably larger than several Earths!
