We're being spoiled as far as nice weather goes over here. Although that probably means we'll pay it back with weeks of rain soon enough
Conditions were fair. Decently clear sky with ok seeing (not great, but definitely not bad either).
CaK: 80ED f7 (stopped down to 60mm for the full disk), IMX174. HA: Lunt LS50, IMX178.
Thanks for looking.

Jochen,
Your photos show the location of the spots within the AR very well. Yours also verifies the detached or nearly detached prominence I saw just a short while ago. Hopefully someone will do a animation of it.

Thanks guys.
Probably going to look into getting myself a somewhat more powerful HA setup for high(er) resolution work this summer (a few ideas in my head already). This is all done with a very moderate LS50 and obviously hitting the limitations of what it can do in that regard (still keeping it though, very happy with it).
