Subject: c'est magnifique!
A magnificent looping prominence was seen on the sun today:

heralding the return of active region 1029... and it stole the show. It was the most dramatic prominence I've seen in many months and though the seeing wasn't as steady as yesterday, the warm November temperatures were a real treat.
