In all seriousness do not point your telescope/camera at the sun without proper filters
The Sun’s chromosphere was captured through a Solar Hydrogen Alpha filter which isolates a very narrow band of light to pass through to the camera sensor
This was shot with a Lunt LS60MT with double stacking.
200/1000 frames stacked

Wait, it’s late at night and I’ve had a whisky. How does one photograph the sun, at night? You close to north/South Pole or something??

I would love to watch the sun for hours. I wish I had the equipment and experience.

Wow. Just holy crap- how did you do this? Was this on eclipse day last year? Genuinely really curious

I’m so confused. How did you find the Sun at night?

Why is the sun so much bigger than the moon ? They are roughly the same angular size

Anyone else initially think, „Well that’s a nice shot of the moon but why’d you photobomb it with a cornbread muffin?“ Actually, still not 100% sure that wouldn’t be delicious with some chili.

Noice! History being made in front of.. well, your eyes, I guess.
Anyway, tell us about your night, OP. How freaked out were you taking a night picture during the day?? Like, when the sun was still up and it was dark outside, did you see anything else?

Well I’m gonna need a TLDR because I’m not smart enough to understand how.

OP, I’d like to tell you I had a good little chuckle at your title. At least a few of us understood it was a joke.

Are you by any chance [Polish](https://youtu.be/FAqKMMhVScM?si=x91l65n73JbDbosC)?
These comments hurt me deeply.
Wonderful composition, friend. What were the 3 photos composited? I assume one of the Sun, and one of the Moon, and then…neither, for the stars?
Are you an astronaut? Did you shoot this while you were in space?
I thought it was a cookie at first while I was scrolling
Bro what 🫡 this is insanity in absolutely the best way
