The Sun

In summer time sky is very bright here in Finland, so deepsky observations are impracticable. Only the brightest planets, the Moon and the Sun are seen. I have observed the Sun and I have taken some photos of it with a digital camera. Below you can see sunspots and how they transform. Magnification is somewhat 120x. Photos' colour is contrived, because my mylar filter is blue and it gives (naturally) a blue picture.

Click here and you can see a gray scale animation (177kb) of the Sun. Animation has worked at 12.5-21.5.2000.
