Mesa Arch in Canyonlands National Park at sunrise. Just one of many iconic locations shot on western road trip with Kevin Benedict. Mesa was one of my favorites, and it's as close to a sure-fire bet that you will get an interesting shot as you will find outdoors. There were not too many people there that morning, which meant everyone had time to move around and try different angles. The nice thing about Mesa is that you have a pretty good time window for composing sunrise shots. Note that the sunburst here is above the horizon, with the sun coming through the underside of the arch. The best reflected light on the underside of the arch comes a bit after sunrise.The temperature was perfect in the early morning making for a nice relaxing time to set up and concentrate on executing the shot.
Taken with my trusty Pentax 12-24mm, which has a simple starburst pattern but which can shoot in to direct sun pretty reliably. I also had my Sigma 18-35mm F1.8 which has a beautiful starburst pattern, but it doesn't shoot in to the sun very well and the results were pretty messy.
Partial solar eclipses are relatively common compared to total eclipses. They occur about 2 to 5 times per year somewhere on Earth. A partial solar eclipse happens when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun, but only partially obscures the Sun.

So the hotel I was staying at was on a point, a headland and its wall and glass partition provided a great backdrop for the vivid sunset. This was the shot I was most happy with, from the deeply flawed but beautiful R-D1 and Hologon, replete with purple lens flare angel (over the car) and assortment of aberrations, hence Solar flare.... and entirely un-cropped (all 6.1mp of it!) thanks to the Voigtlander spirit level and 25mm VF

7 mile bike ride to the marsh and i arrived just after sunrise but the light was crap. Not a wasted journey though, great place to fly the drone! About an hour after sunrise the sun started to rise behind the low clouds and you could see a halo starting to appear.
On January 22, solar reports warned of high solar activity with the presence of two important active regions associated with class M solar flares (www.spaceweather.com/glossary/flareclasses.html). In the image on the left you can see the configuration of the active regions on the Sun's disk. Active region 3559 (detail on the right, left in the complete image of the Sun), had rapid growth and crossed the solar disk in the course of the week. On January 23, this active region and 3561 (on the right in the image of the solar disk separated by around 500,000 km), erupted simultaneously, generating a "sympathetic solar flare", produced by a physical connection between both active regions, which caused shortwave radio blackouts in Australia and Indonesia (www.spaceweather.com/archive.php?view=1&day=23&mo...). The large active region 3559 had a "beta-gamma" class magnetic field and more than thirty sunspots, while 3561 evolved over the course of the week reaching about 100,000 km wide and twenty dark cores.
Details associated with the day of capture: www.spaceweatherlive.com/es/archivo/2024/01/22/dayobs.html
The image of the entire disk on the left was taken with a "Meade" 80/400 refractor telescope and the detail on the right, with an "Explore Scientific" 127, f/15 Maksutov-Cassegrain telescope. In both cases a "Meade" 575 white light filter was used (remember not to expose your eyes to the Sun or photographic equipment without the appropriate filters), a Player One Neptune-M camera and a Player One IR685 filter.

Student parking at Michigan State University at night. MSU has installed solar panels in 5 parking lots to create the largest solar installation in the State of Michigan (peak power 10.5 MW). Half moon is in the sky between the arrays.
4x5 negative contact printed on 5x7 Ilford MGFB Classic photographic paper. Ilford MG developer at usual concentration of 1:9.
Initial exposure for 7 secs (one second underexposed) with burning of center for one second. Development for 25 secs - 10 second water bath - re-exposure to light for two seconds - then development continued for 95 additional seconds. Stop, Fix, and Wash.
The finished print was photographed with the Nikon D850 and Nikkor 105mm/2.8D Macro lens. The WB was checked with a gray card, and there was no B&W conversion. There are minor adjustments to the Black and White points - otherwise, no global changes to contrast were made, and there was no local dodging and burning.
Solarization, as rediscovered and practiced by Man Ray and Lee Miller, is a technique in which the partially developed positive image is briefly re-exposed to light, leading to interesting effects which include a partial reversal of tonality, particularly in the light tones (which contain less exposed silver halide.) Strong black or white "Mackie" lines may occur at borders between areas of high contrast.
The Sabattier effect, discovered in 1862, is similar but is said to have been produced in photo prints only partially developed, as opposed to the full development practiced by Man Ray. Solarization of negative film is a somewhat different process in which very long exposures lead to complete tone reversal.
This project (and it was a project...) arose from a discussion at the Brooklin, Maine Camera Club. Thanks to Stephen Greenberg and Russell Kaye.

Gedeeltelijke zonsverduistering van 25 oktober 2022 boven Simrishamn in Skåne (Zweden). De foto is genomen rond het maximum waarbij de zon voor 38% afgedekt was door de maan. De magnitude bedroeg 0,49. In Amsterdam, waar ik woon, waren deze cijfers 22% en 0,33, een schijnbaar groot verschil maar door de enorme kracht van de zon maakt dat niet of nauwelijks verschil voor de hoeveelheid licht en voor de duur van de verduistering.

Partial solar eclipse of 25 October 2022 over Simrishamn in Skåne, Sweden. The photo was taken around its maximum where the sun was 38% covered by the moon. Its magnitude was 0.49. In Amsterdam, where I live, these figures were 22% and 0.33, a seemingly large difference but due to the enormous power of the sun, this makes little or no difference for the amount of light and the during the duration of the eclipse.

Solar Eclipse series taken on August 21, 2017 near Driggs, Idaho.
The 3 images in the center were taken without solar filtration (those on both sides of the corona are "diamond ring" captures—going into and out of totality). The 6 outside images had a solar filter over the lens. The EXIF on the right is for the corona exposure.
Here's what this eclipse sequence looked like over the Tetons!
During totality it's almost like night (you can see some the planets and the brighter stars).
You can find more my night photography techniques (my specialty) in my ebook, Milky Way NightScapes, which gives extensive details on my style of starry night landscape photography. Four chapters cover planning, scouting, forecasting star/landscape alignment, light painting, shooting techniques and post processing.

The solar eclipse is the only time earthlings can see the dark side of the moon.
Shot with 10 stop plus 3 stop ND filter stacked.
I was fortunate enough to find myself in Jackson, Wyoming on Aug. 21, 2017 to see and photograph the total solar eclipse. There's no rehearsal for this type of photography, unless you chase eclipses (which I have not), so I read as much as I could about the technique beforehand. Finally, when totality finally occurred, I was so stunned by the beauty and awe of the eclipse I promptly forgot everything I had learned. For a moment, I had no idea what to do, and I only had 2 minutes. Fortunately, I pulled myself together to remember, "ah, yes, you need to take off the solar filter during totality!" What a dope!
In case you didn't know this is what the solar system might look like.
I had to atually do some "Honey Dos" last weekend.
You know the ones - Honey do this, Honey do that.
So some paint on metal posts had to be touched up and naturally it was a special paint which I had to hunt down. Made by Resene Paint in New Zealand, it is a metallic paint, and quite stiff as you can see from the picture above, taken after stirring it to try to make the contents evenly dispersed throughout the mix.
For those that are polychromatically challenged, metallic paint has a aluminium type substrate added which gives it a sparkly effect.
Most new cars these days are painted in metallic as often and only white is offered in the "normal" price and any other colour costs extra, perhaps another way that the manufacturers use to surgically remove more $$ from you.
Metallic paint is also called polychromatic or "metal flake" paint.
Historically, it was difficult to achieve an invisible repair if the paint was damaged because it is critical at which angle the flakes in the paint lie. Modern techniques have more or less eliminated this problem. Similarly it was difficult for amateurs to get an evenly dispersed mix of the metallics, and when sprayed on a surface, would clearly show up. Trust me I speak from experience.
It appears that metallic paint use on cars goes back to about 1930 which surprises me.

Total solar eclipse viewed from White Rock Lake, Dallas, Texas on April 8, 2024. This photo shows the diamond ring that forms at the beginning of totality. Several prominences can also be seen.
had I the heaven's embroidered cloths
enwrought with golden and silver light
the blue and the dim and the dark cloths
of night and light and the half light
I would spread the cloths under your feet:
but I, being poor, have only my dreams
I have spread my dreams under your feet ;
tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
W.B Yeats
The long, coarse hairs of the outer layer of a Polar Bear's fur are hollow, letting the warming rays of the sun reach to the dark skin that acts as a solar heat collector. The air-filled guard hairs also help insulate the bears from the cold temperatures and will come together when a bear jumps into below freezing waters to keep the animal warm.

This is part of two solar arrays above the neighboring Glen Ivy Spiritual Center, making them the largest private solar energy source in Riverside County..
This one is a little more arty than the other. I used a 10-stop ND filter on this (and the previous one, below) and also blended at least 2 exposures. My goal was to keep some colour in the sun and not have it blowout.
It was so bright that this isn't what anyone would have actually seen, but then again, you're not supposed to look at eclipses anyway.

Accidental solarization from circa 1972. Rolleiflex TLR. Taken in Pound Ridge Reservation, New York. Scan of a print.
In Hamilton Canada, the solar eclipse on June 10, 2021 was only a partial eclipse and this was the maximum of the partial eclipse, however it happened exactly at sunrise as seen here.
A few clouds dance across the partial solar eclipse as seen from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
I used a 400mm/f2.8 lens with a 2x tele extender on a Nikon 7100 DX crop body for a 1200mm effective focal length. I had to keep readjusting as the sun would quickly move out of my frame with that much "power".
I am sure there are lots of solar eclipse photos being shared so I thought I join in. I'm looking forward to seeing totality in 2024 in Erie, Pa.

Sun halo. 2 hours prior moon Solar Eclipse. Below, the Solar Eclipse changes over 2 hours than the sun is back normal without moon covering the sun. Very rare and damage to eyes following without limited view.
A seies of images taking during the "Great American Eclipse" of August 21st 2017. Our location was Greenville, South Carolina. Equipment used: Canon 7D with Tamron 150-600mm lens and solar filter sheet.
Here's a crop showing the solar prominences, literally enormous loops of plasma that extend thousands of miles into space.
Lens is the 645 A* 600mm f/5.6 on the 645Z with a 1.4xTC. I removed the ND filter for totality.
I had a series of small mishaps which caused me to only capture a handful of exposures during totality, so stacking/blending was very limited. I did my best.
Hope you like it.
