A laterally oriented structure in the Sun's corona seemed to balance itself (watch the area to the upper left) above the Sun's surface for at least two days (May 26-28, 2015). The structure seemed to fade about halfway through the video, but then reappeared even clearer than before. The activity was imaged in a wavelength of extreme ultraviolet light.

Nature's filaments 'lighting up' the 'scent' from one extremely fragrant rose in the garden.
The stamen (from Latin stamen meaning "thread of the warp") is the male organ of a flower. Each stamen generally has a stalk called the filament (from Latin filum, meaning "thread"), and, on top of the filament, an anther (from Ancient Greek anthera, feminine of antheros, flowery) and pollen sacs.

Filament comes in many different types: chalky, woody, plastic, solid color, transclucent, and even food!
SDO watched for many days as this snaking, elongated filament rotated around with the Sun. If straightened out, it would reach almost across the diameter of the Sun, about 1 million miles or 100 times the size of Earth. This one is longer than any we have observed in quite awhile. The image and movie was produced by blending images taken in two wavelengths of extreme UV light (Sept. 30, 2014). Filaments are clouds of gas suspended above the Sun by powerful magnetic forces.

The Sun goes into cycles where it goes from being very active to barely active. These cycles last approximately 11 years. Going back several months, our Sun has been in a "quiet" period. Very little geomagnetic activity. No sunspots for months, No exciting features to observe like filaments, prominences, spicules, and flares. Frankly, it has been very boring for solar observers like myself.
Just when I thought I was going to have to take up gardening during the daytime, the Sun Wakes Up with a large filament as you can see on the "surface" and some nice prominences around the edge. There are also two very small sunspots that are difficult to observe in this particular hydrogen-alpha picture of the Sun.
For us observers, let's hope there is more to come.
The hairs on these reed plants do help to attract pollens thus accelerating fertilization. More reeds shall be produced eventually.

A developing filament near the edge of the sun churned and twisted as the rotating sun brought it into clearer view over a day (Nov. 16-17, 2017). Filaments are cooler and often unstable clouds of particles floating above the sun's surface, which are tethered by magnetic forces. In extreme ultraviolet light, they appear darker than the sun's surface. The bright area to the right of the filament is an active region. The loop that appears behind the filament in the middle of the clip is made of charged particles tracing magnetic field lines. Credit: Solar Dynamics Observatory, NASA.

I'm amazed at how photography can reveal details that the human eye could never see, like details on the filament of this lighted bulb. Every once in a while I stop to think about what life was like before electrical lights became ubiquitous, and I can't imaging how different the world must have been.
This string of lights in DUMBO New York (with the Brooklyn bridge unidentifiable in the background) caught my eye. This is as close as I get to still life photography.
