Description

Howdy,

Been a week of cloud and a few unexpected breaks, such as this morning.
I managed to get around 45 minutes on this filament associated with AR2891 and after deleting the cloud affected avi's I ended up with this not to shabby animation.

I tried also yesterday but nearly came off second best in my rush to connect everything in between clouds.  I plugged my Hinode Solar Guider accidentally into one of the Aux ports of my AVX mount....
Well everything still worked once I replugged into the guide port and this animation was the test to ensure all was working well.. phew!

Thanks to Warren on CN for his feedback and Ted from Hinode for the valuable comments and very prompt response  (per usual) to my panic email.
I dodged a bullet so to speak... so I hope you enjoy this animation.

I would have liked another 30 minutes but the cloud got thicker and as it was I had to delete a number of avi's.

My thanks to the authors of the above software, for making it affordable (SharpCap) and or freeware (Autostakkert3 & ImPPG & GIMP).

Thanks for looking.
