This image of the corpse of former sunspot 1041 and a prominence was taken January 30, 2010 at around 21:00 UTC. The image was taken with a Tele Vue 102iis refractor, Coronado SM90 H-alpha filter, DMK41AU02.AS camera, 2X barlow, on a CGE Pro mount. Processing was done with Registax and Photoshop. The image was taken from my home in Evansville, Indiana, USA.
