Impressive prominences – – – 13/11/2018
This is the most impressive prominence that I have seen for a while!
The prominence changed quite rapidly as you can see from the times, and from this animation (the earlier prominence image is a bit fuzzy because the Sun was VERY low at the time!):

New Sunspot! (AR 2726) 12/11/2018
Yesterday’s prominences have developed further with the added bonus of spot AR2726. Here are today’s Ha solar images including yesterday’s and the day before’s prominences for comparison.
A new sunspot!!
Spaceweather says:
“A NEW SUNSPOT: Breaking a strong of 24 spotless days, a new sunspot is growing near the center of the solar disk. Here it is. Amateur astronomers with backyard solar telescopes are encouraged to monitor its development. After all, sunspot genesis is rare during solar minimum.”
