Something I have wanted to do for ages. But I can pick umpteen holes in this. Trying to even get the right sort of bulb was not the easiest - most are LED or not dimmable. Then the bulb would have worked better rotated 180 degrees. Getting rid of dust was another nightmare. So don't look closely ..Lol! So I think I will have another try at this sometime in future.
Prominences on the solar limb - composite of two images, one exposed for the chromosphere the other for the prominences

An antique style light bulb with spiral filament as seen at King’s Road Brewery in Medford, NJ. Highly recommend this brewery for craft beer and next door is a great BBQ joint. Cheers!
A filament (which at one point had an eerie similarity to a snake) broke away from the sun and out into space (Nov. 1, 2014). The video covers just over three hours of activity. This kind of eruptive event is called a Hyder flare. These are filaments (elongated clouds of gases above the sun's surface) that erupt and cause a brightening at the sun's surface, although no active regions are in that area. It did thrust out a cloud of particles but not towards Earth. The images were taken in the 304 Angstrom wavelength of extreme UV light.

Peace lilies (Spathiphyllum) are evergreen herbaceous perennial plants with large leaves 12–65 cm long and 3–25 cm broad. Although it is called a "lily", the peace lily is not a true lily from the family Liliaceae. True lilies are highly toxic (poisonous) to cats and dogs, but the peace lily, spathiphyllum is only mildly toxic to humans and other animals when ingested.

Taken for SSC 20/04/2019 - Back Lighting .
Liked the idea of this challenge and a number of possibilities - subjects and lighting . I ended up with a couple of shots , one in a high key type presentation and this one a light in the dark and from behind the subject . I did not see the filaments of web in the shot until I put the picture on the computer . The shot has had a crop , a couple of very minor adjustments and that is what you see above .
In the first comment box is another shot that was a contender for the challenge .
for sight and sound
how about something called " Light Of Creation "
Thanks to Alan for the flashgun loan.
It'll be difficult to do these soon, once old tungsten light bulbs get phased out, which won't be long.
Blue gelled 580EX on remote cable with soft box to the left arranged with black card baffles to control shadows and flare. Black card to rear. White card to right as reflector. Flash on manual 1/32 power.
A very cliché shot, but I love the colours in this one. Other than a small crop, straight out of camera.
This is actually Adobe's default colour profile, rather than one of the Fuji film simulations - normally I always try to use a Fuji colour profile, but here it just had such a glow in the Adobe profile that the Fuji profiles lost.
