Description

Notice the M3.2 flare emerging from the large sunspot group AR2209 near southeast limb.

I also observed the flare visually (by quickly removing the camera so I could get a look through the eyepiece). I could see what looked like some long streamers emerging from the origin point of the flare. What fun!

For comparison, this same flare was recorded by the

NASA SDO satellite.
