5/27/2024 Sunrise and Sunspots
I woke up early and decided I might as well make the most of it. I headed to Petit Jean Mountain to shoot the sunrise, an hour’s drive. Once that was done, I went to the River Ridge Observatory to shoot the Sun through a white light filter. This time, I used a 3x magnifier to increase the focal length to 4500mm and f/ratio to f/36. A new sunspot cluster has come around from the other side.
