It was actually pretty cool, my friend and I were doing some solar observing the other day and we saw that giant solar filament and pretty surprised at how large it was.

It was only once I came home later that day that I noticed that it was being reported in the media as being exceptionally large and was getting quite a bit of coverage.

Gotta say, I really like that black and white image of the filament and sunspot you've got there though. It's pretty cool to see the two on one image!
