Description

I was lucky enough to photograph this wall of plasma on 03/11/2023. These structures have been observed many times on the Sun and have been visible for a few days at this time. By chance I had seen a picture of it on spaceweather.com and was glad to be able to photograph this phenomenon myself. The structures are called polar crown prominences and are commonly observed around the solar poles. Researchers still don't fully understand them.

I hope you like the image and  would be very happy about a comment.
