The large prom from a few days ago has moved off the limb and heading across the sun. There is another batch of proms on the limb now.

That's just Amazing! The contrast and clarity and the active proms.

Recently I have been doing almost exclusively Solar viewing. I have two Lunts a 40mm & a 50mm which I can triple stack. One to use for imaging and the other for visual. Two Lacerta Herschel Wedges Big & Sm with 120mm & 95x1300 refractors using go to alt/az mounts and my big goto EQ.
