Solar imaging is hot work… especially in Florida!
Sunspots on the Sun taken with a DSLR, but using a special front mounted solar filter.
Clouds obscured totality for me during the 2017 Solar eclipse, but I nabbed a few images as the eclipse began (false color).
Sunspot parade the morning of October 7th, 2022.
Our daytime star, the Sun in Hydrogen Alpha light.
AR 3590 on February 27, 2024 in Ha light.
Active Region 3590 on February 27, 2024 in white light.
Active Region 3590 in Ha and white light.
The Sun and Moon during totality. Note that bright prominence at the bottom just peeking through low areas on the lunar limb.
Prominence’s on the Eastern limb of the Sun. Note the rather large triangular prominence at the bottom. This was visible to the naked eye during the eclipse.
Prominences and the Corona early in the totality when the proms on the West side are still visible.
The Diamond Ring at the beginning of totality during the 2024 total solar eclipse.
Baileys Beads just before totality ends. These are caused by sunlight filtering through gaps in the lunar terrain like mountains, valleys, and craters.
