You can even see the red perturbation at lower left. Nice. How did you take the picture?

This is kind of funny because it was in the lower left where I viewed the eclipse

I had a Canon T5i with a 600mm telephoto lens on a tracking mount, and used Magic Lantern (a firmware addon) to automatically take bracketed exposures at intervals of a few seconds. It let me actually enjoy the eclipse instead of trying to take photos during it. I actually got a much better photo of the solar prominences at my lowest exposure, though they are still overexposed somewhat. (Who knew they're that bright?) Photo

It's a solar prominence. One of the big loopy bois on the Sun's surface.
