Flame Parade on the Sun!

[Roel]

Yesterday was a good day to watch the sun in h-alpha. On the southwest edge were a lot of prominences visible. They were not very large, but each one was different. A very nice view. A few bright patches and filaments were also visible, but I obviously have to practice a bit more to render them realisticly.
