Solar Imaging Session - November 8, 2009 (Huge Eruptive Prominence !!! )
Hello:
I wake up late this morning and thought I would not be able to image the Sun as i got around less than 10 minutes of observing window before the Sun will be obstructed by my house's roof extension. But I still managed to setup and observe the Sun and to my amazement, a huge eruptive prominence jumped out of my eyepiece's view! It is one of the largest I have seen these past years so I quickly image it asap. Seeing is fair at 1/5 but the prominence is nevertheless beautiful! Image can be viewed below:
3 hours after I image the huge eruptive prominence, the prominence had already ejected its shell away from the solar limb which can be seen faintly from ther image I took. Seeing was terrible as thick clouds keeps on passing in front of the Sun thus preventing me from getting a good shot of the prom. Nevertheless, the prom can still be seen faintly.

Solar Imaging Session - November 6, 2009
Hello:
Weather this morning is not that clear as thick clouds covered the Sun most of the time before 9am. I was only able to get a small window of opportunity to image the Sun below which shows a moderate size eruptive prominence.

Solar Imaging Session - November 3, 2009
Hello:
It looks like my prayer was answered today as I prayed that there will be more large eruptive prominences inj the days to come! 3 large eruptive prominences can be seen in the solar limb. Seeing was also okay this morning. Will there be another good show tomorrow is another question that will be answered in 8 hours time :)

Solar Imaging Session - November 2, 2009
Hello:
It was a clear day this morning and I quickly setup my PST-Ha to see how old Sol is doing lately. It was unfortunate that when AR11029 was crossing the Sun. The weather was quite bad for me to do any solar imaging :( Anyway, the seeing was good today and I was able to see numerous solar prominences around the solar limb as seen below:

Solar Imaging Session - October 17, 2009
Hello:
The sky this morning is fare with moderate seeing. Yesterday's large eruptive prominence is still visible but is starting to arch back again to the Sun's limb . Another smaller prominence can also be seen in the next image. Overall, the activity is still quite minimal. Hoping tomorrow there will be some major large prominence that will popped out of the solar limb :) LOL

Hello:
The sky condition this morning is good and I quickly setup the PST-HA for me to check out the Sun. Its been a while already that I was able to observe the Sun under good seeing. As I check on the limb, there was a large eruptive prominence that can be seen with several smaller prominences.
