AR2733 & Proms at 150mm, Disc at 60mm | HA | Jan 28th 2019

Post by MalVeauX »

Heya,

Woke up to a clear sky, yet it was cloudy and rained all night. I'll take it! I figured I would miss out on AR2733 as it rounds the limb. I really like limb spots in general, some of my favorite angles to look at the regions around the spot. AR2733 is pretty active and is the most interesting spot we've had in quite a while as we approach the peak of the minimum. There are some small filaments, a second undesignated region with some minor activity and some feint but large proms around the limb. Hoping to see AR2733 tomorrow as it begins to round the limb. there seems to be a wee filament in front it that may make an interesting prominence tomorrow or the day after as it begins to hit the limb.

Hi Marty...

These are all excellent, and I really like the 3-D appearance of the second image as well. The proms were faint but you kept the fine structures in the capture and processing. Well done all round :bow
