Translucent Solar Filament and an Emerging Active Region on August 30, 2012
I waited for the filament to become fully visible from behind the south eastern limb and as a bonus there appeared a new smoldering active region also. I expected to capture the filament in a stronger 3D look, but this time it was thinner and nicely transparent. The image was inverted to strengthen the 3D feel. This see-through filament was imaged on August 30, 2012 at 08:12 UT. I experimented with the Ken Burns (Pan and Zoom) effect in an attempt to highlight the details. The image was captured at 2220 mm FL, using a SW150 refractor, rear H-alpha etalon filter, internal 110 mm ERF filter, Coronado BF10, Basler acA1300-30gm camera.

This was a Translucent Red that I dyed to make it a much deeper red, hence the name "Blood". The FHZ logo has a blue tint to it now. 2 of this color will be at Turf.
There were thousands of these berries all over the hedge rows lining the fields we were walking through.
