Solar Imaging Session - August 18, 2024

The sky this morning is super hazy and impossible to image as images are very low contrast due to thick haze and cloudy sky. But in the afternoon , the sky improved a little for me to do some "trying hard" shots of AR3784 and the close pair of AR3792 & AR3790 Region through thin haze. In Ha wavelength, AR3792 and AR3790 Region are somewhat interconnected by a S shaped flare looping between the 2 regions. There is also a nice large hedgerow prominence in the SE limb . I later got news that the thick haze is caused by emission smog most probably caused by nearby Taal Volcano so thats why it was strangely too hazy today... Sigh...
