Subject: More solar images from the weekend

As promised, here are some images taken from a few of the many active regions that were present on the body of the Sun yesterday.

Many of the large thick dark filaments are actually prominences erupting in our direction. I managed to tease out some of the detail but it is interesting that they appear as a negative image to prominences seen on the perimeter of the sun.
