Amazing weekend with tons of prominences (+video)

[AstroWolvy]

After few days of rain and storms the weekend of 4th was clear with only few small clouds passing through. The seeing was average and with a Sun with so many prominence (my favorite subject) i couldn't resist and spent several hours of saturday and sunday imaging.
 

I just finished to work at the data, in the clip you will find the best prominence captures and a timelapse of the huge one, which keep us entertained for two long days. I suggest to see the HD version to better enjoy the spicules details. Hope you like it, all captured at 3 - 3.5 meter.

The presence of few promninence next the bigger one suggested to make a big mosaic (3500px) of the big system.

There is something very beautiful and calming about staring into a fire... None bigger than this fire!
