AR2645 Class C Flare – 6th April 2017

[IanL]

So I managed to process my animation from yesterday. I've got some nice prominences plus I captured part of a class C flare on AR2645. You can see it when the region at the right jumps in brightness (there is a gap of 15 minutes due to me not capturing at the point where the flare kicked off, but I got the tail end of it).  Sorry it's on my blog, but can't figure out how to embed videos here!

Good catch Ian, you can't post videos on here, you can put them on Y'Tube or some such and post a link.
