Hydrogen alpha - July 20th 2022.

Currently there is a beautiful prominence on the solar limb.

Earlier this evening I captured a few Ha images with the PST. 

The Sun also has filaments, plages and sunspots a plenty at the moment.  

All good news for the solar astronomers.

The phone camera I use is good at capturing prominences, but terrible at revealing any surface detail.

Time for a new type of camera I guess... Hmmm... I wonder!
