#sun #astrophotography #LUNT #halpha #astronomy
Detailed solar image showing the Sun’s yellowish surface with visible sunspots on the right and filamentary structures likely representing solar prominences or magnetic activity. Useful for studying solar dynamics and space weather. A high-contrast black and white photograph showing the silhouette of a jet airplane flying directly across the face of the Sun. The airplane is positioned in the center-right of the solar disk and trails a distinctive dark contrail that stretches off the right edge of the frame. The Sun appears as a bright, large circle against a pitch-black sky. A dramatic solar eclipse: the Moon veils the Sun in shadow, leaving a fiery orange halo and vivid red prominences dancing at the edges. Image of a backyard telescope setup featuring a red and black cylindrical telescope mounted on a tripod. The scene includes grassy ground, leafless trees, a shed or house, and a clear blue sky—ideal conditions for amateur astronomy or astrophotography.
