Today's Proms & Limb Filament, Full Disc, in 6562.8A| March 13th 2019

[MalVeauX]

Heya,

Woke up to total cloud cover again. So, good seeing was not an option. But, late this afternoon around 1pm, the sky cleared up. Seeing was poor, so I could not support a large image scale. I stacked reducers to lower my scale to be able to do anything in the poor seeing. But managed to get some data worth processing into images. There's an interesting filament and plage area on the limb rotating out of view. Mean while, there's also an interesting new plage area with some fair prominences rotating into the view. Included some small plages found mid way on the disc.

B&W:

Color:

Very best,

Great set Marty. I'm looking forward to see what you can do with that setup when the Sun gets a bit lively.
