The most prominent red dot visible during totality was the big loop prominence that you have at 5 o'clock in your image here. On Monday night, I compared my pre-totality images with those from the Solar Dynamics Observatory, and was able to use the sunspot clusters to match their orientation. The brightest of the red dots was right where the loop is.
That's awesome! Thanks for the clarification between flares and prominences as well!
