Quiescent solar prominence time-lapse with Daystar h-alpha filter

Hi, I'm new on te forum and would like to make a good impression, so i will promote few of my past timelapse and images.

Hope you will like them and will follow my channel. :)

The animation (click on the image) represent a close up portion of the sun of 07 August with the evolution of a quiescent prominence during an hour of observation. Images taken with a 100 ed refractor using a Daystar h-alpha filter at a focal of 2300mm.

This time the Sun didn't show any big prominence so I decided to point the telescope on one of the many small ones. The arc was very slow in the moviment while the tornado on the right more turbolent and fast. I preferred to use intervals of 60 seconds to 50 seconds of capture, because the seeing was terrible and I wanted to gather more data but the fastest moviment became blured. I hope to have better seeing next time.

That really is a magnificent capture! well done and a warm and sunny welcome too :)

I'd love to try this, but all summer the sun has never stayed out more than 10 minutes, so never able to get a timelapse, may be next summer.
