Details:
The Sun was very exciting yesterday as I watched two very active prominences interacting with one another and making a plasma bridge on the solar limb. At times small tenuous pieces floated off into space…it was just so fascinating to watch!
I had a little bit of trouble working out the orientation of the Sun as I usually don’t take images early in the morning, so I used the solar disc displayed on the Spaceweather website to line up the sunspots with the ones on my image and it helped greatly ☺ ☺ ☺
Images were taken with a Lunt 60mm PT/Ha Solar Telescope & Canon 700D camera with a 2x Barlow lens attached. One set of 30 images were taken for the solar disc and one set of 30 images for the faint prominence. Then both images were combined in PS
