Solar Imaging Session - August 26, 2012 (2 Huge Eruptive Prominences !!!)
The sky this morning was partly clear but seeing is good. I was able to do my 2nd solar imaging session in the row. New AR11555 Sunspot Group continuous to grow in size as it emerges from the NE limb. But the most prominent feature this morning are 2 huge eruptive prominences that are visible in the NE and SE limb. It was a joy to look at both prominences with the NE prominence being the most interesting! Lots of dark filaments are also visible in both NE and SE quadrant.
As I was planning to shoot the sunspots through high res white light, clouds started to cover the Sun and seeing suddenly deteriorated thus frustrating me to image them until the Sun gets obstructed again by our roof at around 9:00am. Oh well, better luck again tomorrow........... :)
