Prominence animation, 16th April 2015

Hi all,

I captured this hour's-worth of prominence activity today in poor seeing (isn't it always bad seeing in hot sunlight, unless you're atop a mountain?). 500-frame captures at 50fps at 5 minute intervals, PST/TAL mod + QHY5-ii cam. They sure move fast.

Inverted image (which I think looks better):

Normal:

And here's 12 of the frames in sequence:

Really nice video!

Superb work!

BTW, I took the liberty of changing the title of the thread, it said July 15 rather than April 16 (too much time in the sun ).

Lovely, I struggle to centre the images for a time lapse so don't do them.

That is a great example.

Stunning animation and piece of work Luke, thanks for sharing. I had no idea these proms rotated so markedly and have sat mesmerised and gawping :-D

I was watching this with my own PSTal yesterday. Awesome prom. The main AR was incredibly active yesterday too.

Very nice, Luke, plenty of movement in the hour :laugh:

Despite the seeing you can still see the movement so clearly.
