Details:
Today, Wednesday August 24, I managed to photograph a huge but faint solar prominence on the south east limb of the sun. This prominence looked like a group of trees forming a magnificent forest of hot plasma rising more than 80,000 km above the sun's surface.
Within the solar disk you can see 3 active regions containing sunspots.
To achieve this image I had to record dozens of videos until I found a moment of less turbulence in the atmosphere and in this way obtain a photograph with sufficient sharpness.
I used a Coronado Solarmax II 90mm aperture telescope and a ZWO 183MM camera
