Here is a time-lapse of the ~2.5 hours we got to see of the transit here in middle TN. If you watch the large AR in the middle, you will see a flare. Also, the prominences (at the bottom) are dancing around! We took 24 x 1min. videos at intervals throughout the evening and processed each to make the video. Hope you enjoy it!!

Very cool. I like the prom erupting, toward the end.

Very very cool guys. Wish the weather here would have cooperated. I wanted to get the sct and filter out but it was overcast, not even a sucker hole!
