The Mayday Sun was created by TrevorDurity
Howdy all,
A nice bit of activity up there today. One large prom and a few small ones. One feature was a very 3D looking filament that was just going over limb. I couldn't capture that with the webcam but if you've a halpha scope it's well worth a peak. It appears as the dark streak just below the upper left proms in the first picture.
Here're a couple of shots.
Cheers,
Trev

Fine images Trevor. I prefer the first one.
Good to see that the Sun is still a little active.
