The photosphere of the sun showing several sunspots. It is nice to see activity on the sun. Photo taken with a 600mm lens with a AstroZap solar filter and a D810 camera.
I do find it difficult keeping to a time .....and being on time, unfortunately for me the sun doesn't and I nearly missed it!

I'm gonna do a 365 next year. Look out for it!
The Sun is a G-type main-sequence star comprising about 99.86% of the total mass of the Solar System. It is a near-perfect sphere, with an oblateness estimated at about 9 millionths,which means that its polar diameter differs from its equatorial diameter by only 10 km. As the Sun consists of a plasma and is not solid, it rotates faster at its equator than at its poles. This behavior is known as differential rotation, and is caused by convection in the Sun and the movement of mass, due to steep temperature gradients from the core outwards. This mass carries a portion of the Sun’s counter-clockwise angular momentum, as viewed from the ecliptic north pole, thus redistributing the angular velocity. The period of this actual rotation is approximately 25.6 days at the equator and 33.5 days at the poles. However, due to our constantly changing vantage point from the Earth as it orbits the Sun, the apparent rotation of the star at its equator is about 28 days. The centrifugal effect of this slow rotation is 18 million times weaker than the surface gravity at the Sun's equator. The tidal effect of the planets is even weaker, and does not significantly affect the shape of the Sun
An absolute orange horizon as the sea takes in the setting sun. I remain baffled at the complexity of our Earth. How it can produce so many beautiful colors and how much they can change from day to day.

This image was taken last Sunday evening of the sunset over Langstone Harbour, Hayling Island.
I arranged to meet with local photographer, Dawn (www.flickr.com/photos/133381514@N05/) who wanted some tips to help improve her sunset shots. After a couple of hours discussing camera settings, composition and the use of ND filters and sinking in the wet mud I was pleased to see Dawn had taken some great shots!
1/25 second exposure using a Lee 0.9 ND grad filter.
Thanks for any comments you may wish to leave.
Bonus of early morning birding, i love drinking coffee and watching sun rise but this time i couldn't stop capturing this wonderful moments, intentionally under exposed to see the dramatic Sun behind clouds.
Sunrise@Maroubra Beach. Long Exposure + Lee Filters. Enjoy, Mario.
