A nice clear day today which I used to gather data to practice a new process for animation.  My buddy Michael made me aware of this.  When i first tried to run this on previous captured data i found out that processing one frame took about 20 minutes, so the process for the entire sequence ran all night! The data I captured today was cropped by a Region Of Interest and resulted in an image being prcessed in about 5 minutes.  The result below shows AR1166 at the end of a bright flare, but the images should have been adjusted for brightness.  They are too dark.  So next time better
