Some more of the Sun

I've been ducking the clouds, and trying to shoot some shots of the sun in the gaps... Not an easy task, as finding the sun means you need strong shadows, and the clouds are putting paid to them. Then focusing is really much harder than I was expecting it to be...


Anyway, One from the weekend.. NexStar 60, 2xTC, 450d on a camera tripod with Baader solar film



A few from Yesterday, a bit more atmospheric

And finally one from today.. there was a shot 10 minute gap in the clouds

I'm rather pleased with this second one, it's got a second spot appearing in the upper left and there's details around it.
