Here's a photo of a 'floating' prominence taken on April 28th. If you look close you can see three tendrils from the prominence to the solar limb. C&C always welcome.

I'm stunned. How on Earth (no pun intended) did you get this shot?

Thanks for the nice comments.

Mark - I use a Lunt 60mm h-alpha telescope and a ZWO asi120mm-s video camera. I took two avi's, one for the disk and one for the prominence. Each was stacked in registax6 and then processed/merged in LR and photoshop.

Most solar shots I've seen was BW and sunspots. This is really nice!

That's because they are just standard white light visible images
rather than the quite narrow band of the Ha filters that bring out lots of other solar features
prominences, granulation etc

A picture is worth 1000 words ;)
Canon 5D3, 6D, 700D, a bunch of lenses and other bits, ohhh and some Pentax stuff ;)
