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.
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.
A picture of our Sun shot in Hydrogen Alpha. This partial capture of the Solar disc has been false coloured and shows active prominences on the limb. The Solar disc has been masked in black.
This was captured on 20th May, 2020 from my backyard in the UK.
Equipment used :
Sky-watcher 120mm Evostar Achro
Daystar Quark Chromosphere Ha Eyepiece
Point Grey Blackfly mono CMOS
As a solar observer it is good to see activity increasing as “solar cycle 25” moves forward into its approximate 11-year term. You are looking at a close-up image taken with a Hydrogen-alpha (Hα) telescope.
A solar prominence (also known as a filament when viewed against the solar disk) is a large, bright feature extending outward from the Sun's surface. Prominences are anchored to the Sun's surface in the photosphere, and extend outwards into the Sun's hot outer atmosphere, called the corona. A prominence forms over timescales of about a day, and stable prominences may persist in the corona for several months, looping hundreds of thousands of miles into space. Scientists are still researching how and why prominences are formed. Source: NASA
I have been slacking on flickr because I am working on www.scallopholden.com I am not good at web design yet so it sucks. I will continue to work on it so keep going back.

At first humans were able to keep up with the accelerating heat generated by the sun. With the turning of the seasons their technology failed them.
As the sun swept across the sky it scorched the land.
Bewildered humanity knew not what to do.
Nothing mattered, it was over.
Birds, animals, insects all died away. Lush green fields turned brown, the oceans evaporated and the earth dreamed of death.
This hurt my eye taking this shot...LOL
Loved the way the sun looked as it revealed itself from behind the curtain of stormy clouds!
No color adjustments made!
Homeward bound!
This is the Flight Report for : Toulouse-Payerne
PILOT: BERTRAND PICCARD
DATE: 24.07.2012
TAKE-OFF TIME: 05:01 AM UTC / 7:00 AM Toulouse Time
TIME OF LANDING: 06:30 PM UTC
FLIGHT DURATION: 13H 29MIN
AVERAGE SPEED: 34 KTS
AVERAGE ALTITUDE: 3596 METRES
On its final leg from Toulouse to Payerne, Solar Impulse traveled 615 km (382 miles) in 13 hours 29 minutes at an average speed of 63 km/h (39 mph) and at an average altitude of 3,596 meters (11,800 ft)
On Friday 20th March 2015, a total solar eclipse occured across the far Northern regions of Europe and the Artic. The longest duration of totality for this eclipse was 2 minutes and 46 seconds as viewed off the coast of the Faroe Islands. This will mark the last total solar eclipse in Europe for over a decade. The next not being until August 12, 2026.
This photograph, taken at 09.29 in Redditch UK shows the maximum partial eclipse. The partial cloud cover gave rise to the spectacular colouring of the atmosphere surrounding the eclipse.
This is a first result of my images taken during the Eclipse from Grand Teton. We had great weather there!
Sundogs highlight the circumference of a solar disk in the evening sky above the coastline at Clam Harbour Beach. The atmospheric phenomena of the disk and dogs is created by sunlight refracting through the droplets of water in the clouds. It's one of the more sublime occurrences in nature.
Partial Solar Eclipse, juxtaposed with an aerial slack line demonstration between buildings as part of the Roanoke "go fest". Cloudy enough that a B&W conversation made it more dramatic
Partial Solar Eclipse composite taken outside the path of totality near Vancouver. I decided to stick around home rather than drive into the insanity that occurred south in Oregon. The moon blocked 86 per cent of the sun in Vancouver and Victoria had the best experience in the country with a 90 per cent solar eclipse.
Weekly Theme Challenge-On A White Background
I got this lovely Solar Bird Feeder yesterday. It lights up at night so it's also a lovely garden ornament. The Red Winged Black Bird likes it too!
Mobile 'phonecam shot of a solar powered boat named Ra after the ancient Egyptian sun god, moored up at Wroxham in the Norfolk Broads, UK. Processed in Capture One Pro 23 and split toned using Nik Silver Efex Pro.
A flock of birds cross the eclipsed Sun during the maximum phase along the shore of Cape Cod National Seashore. Low clouds briefly obscured the views at time but it made for some very interesting pictures. It was a great way to end my 6 day night sky and eclipse workshop and I am looking forward to my next eclipse adventure.
