AR12571 Animation 7th August

This animation was taken over 12 minutes and represents 24 frames, and shows what a dynamic little active region this is.  My favourite part is just to the left of the active region where a whorled loop of plasma snakes its way off the solar chromosphere.  Taken with the Daystar Quark, Skywatcher ED80, a 1.4x barlow lens and the PGR Blackfly Gige IMX249 camera.
