Today the last day before the clouds roll in again and very stable clear skies.  AR1386 has rotated to the backside and 1391 is rotating nice in view with some small but bright flares to make it interesting  The prom at the Eastern limb is still there but now is seen as an  arching area a little lighter than the surface detail just of the limb in the direction of AR1391.  On the SE limb a pretty high but faint prominance (you need to look pretty close).  Today the full sun with a closeup of AR1391.
