The Sun on 13.2.14

 
This is a four pane mosaic of the Sun taken as single frames between clouds, using a Canon 550D and the SS solar filter system. The Sun was very active that day and though the four frames were taken within the space of about 10 mins the changes to areas where the panes had to match made it very difficult to do the matching. The SS filter is an Hydrogen Alpha system so the results were monochrome and the colouring was added in Photoshop. I still haven't got the exposures right as the prominences were much more pronounced than this photograph suggests.
