Solar Prominence May 18 2021
As solar activity increases we're getting more dramatic features. Some quick arithmetic -- the chromosphere is about 2500 miles deep; earth's diameter is 7900 miles. So I think the earth would fit snugly under that arch (it might be a bit hot, there though!)

Firecapure/AS3/pipp/ffmpg/GIMP/ACDSee. As always, special filters are required for safe viewing and photography of the sun!
