Celestial Fire

Celestial Fire

Sometimes, I like to revisit my old photographs and try to see the what more I can eke out of a given memory...and sometimes, I actually find something truly worth emphasizing. Case in point, this image of our sun, Sol. Here you can see the sun caught in the middle of 2017's Total Solar Eclipse, but this is a part of the sun that we almost never get to truly see...the actual surface. The sun is magnetism gone wild; its enormous jets of flame arc off the surface in patterns that flow along with the star's twisted magnetic field in what are called prominences. These prominences sometimes are big enough that they could swallow the entirety of Earth and then some...and I actually managed to capture some of them, hidden within the bright glare of our sun's corona.
