There Was Something Rounding The Limb... 11th April

Yesterday crown prominence heralded something coming around the suns eastern limb; on Saturday morning the feature revealed itself as a trio of active sunspots, spitting plasma in a cauldron of turbulent magnetism.  Seeing wasn't great but I got this image very first thing with the 100mm Tal refractor, double stacked quark, Baader solar telecompressor and the Imaging Source DMk31 camera.
