Some images from today - 3rd July 2009
      #3197569 - 07/03/09 06:58 PM

Not much time for solar imaging these days with work and music commmittments getting in the way a lot (great weekend at Glastonbury ) Managed a few late images this afternoon in very average seeing with haze. Not an awful lot on display but there were two small active areas easily visible in Ha and CaK plus a large but very faint prom in the SW. PST Ha and CaK/ DMK41.........Mark

Note the large but extremely faint prom at bottom left of the disk......




AR 11024 starting to brighten up nicely with some plage...




AR 11024




The large faint prom in the SW - exposure was down to 1/9 sec and loads of Gain to get this to show up, a tough one to get an image of............

I knew a Californian must be watching that active region other than just me.

Great images. What are the times? I wonder because I drew a good size prominence complex on the NE limb around 18:00UT.

Super CaK image!
