Details:
Smoke from the Canadian wildfires has filtered the sun an eerie orange color on and off for weeks here along the East Coast. As the sun dips low in the sky, it has made for opportunity to image the numerous sunspots without a solar filter.
It is still not safe to view the sun directly, even through smoke, as the brightness is still a hazard. I took these images with my mirrorless camera using the digital screen to view and focus.
Details: Canon R5, RF 800mm f/11 lens, ISO 100, 1/8000s exposure
