~ Huge Prominence on Sun ~
14th June 2025
I got such a wonderful surprise today when I set up my Lunt (Ha) solar telescope to have a look at the Sun…Wow, right there before my eyes was a stunning prominence firing away on the north western limb of the Sun.
Earlier in the day I had taken some white light images with the little Seestar telescope with the attached solar filter.
The (Ha) images were taken with a Lunt 60mm solar telescope and a Canon 700D camera, 20 images each were captured then stacked in Registax6 and processed in PS.
This is a composite image, as you need two different timed exposures to capture the disc of the Sun and the faint prominence.
