Lovely new spot. Not lovely animation

[Iainp]

After grabbing a shot or two this morning first thing, it clouded over completely. At 10.10 it cleared again for around a quarter of an hour, but left very nasty thin cloud in its place. I wouldn't normally have bothered trying to get an animation, and certainly wouldn't normally inflict this on you, but as a record it might be useful later, depending on how this bad boy turns out 

Processed twice, once for surface, once for the edge action. Cleverer people than I would put the 2 together of course.... 24 frames over 12 minutes.

That's a very nice record Iain, band of cloud over here but may be a clear bit behind it.

Thanks Dave, good luck. I'm trying not to waste the day looking out the window and second guessing the movement of the clouds.

Much better than nothing Iain

[Iainp]

Thanks both! Another mini-animation coming now

Looks like there is some good activity in the new group. Shame about the clouds here.

[Pete Presland]

Looks good to me,  plenty of detail showing.

Nice work in difficult conditions. Your first animation in particular confirms my idea that there is another spot just beyond the limb. You can see it flare and flicker just to the left of the big spot on this side of the limb

Good point, I did wonder why there was so much activity on the limb despite the first spot being well away from the limb now. Another, better, animation coming now

That's a neat little anim there Iain, yep that thing has an angry centre. lets hope it continues.

[paulastro]

Inflict Iain?  Hardly!!  I think your two animations are excellent.  I particularly like the first one as it has a really good 3D look to it. The perspective is very good indeed.

I really like this animation as well. I find it dramatic and inspiring!
