Twisting loops, M- and C-class flares

Note: right-click a video for looping & full screen options.

On Wednesday I let my imaging setup (90/660 mm achro + LS50THa etalon) run between 10:47-18:06 (1300 videos), alas, still haven't caught an X-class flare. But at least I saw my prettiest loops so far.

Minor flare and loops (20-second intervals, 1:32 h total):

 

 

C4.7 flare in AR 3014 (20-second intervals, 0:24 h total):

 

 

Bonus track: high-res liquid sunshine, i.e., an M3.0 flare (though in mediocre seeing and with intermittent high clouds; 20-s intervals, 2:37 h total, RC8 + LS50THa):

 

 

Everything shot with Blackfly S (IMX 273), processed with AS!3 and ImPPG.

These are great animations! It brings it to life.
