Looping prominence and an afocal image
A DMK21 camera was used with a 3x Meade Barlow lens and a H-alpha PST solar scope to capture AVIs exposed for the prominence and the disk separately.
The AVIs were stacked in Registax and combined into a single image using Andrew Sprott’s Solar Layers software:

An afocal image was taken through a 16.8mm orthoscopic eyepiece with a hend held Fujifilm F-450 compact camera. Both images were colourised to represent the colour of the H-alpha light being used:

This image captured solar disk structure as well as the prominences.
