Details:
Family illness on solstice kept me home where we don't have a view to the north. So I placed a fisheye 8mm lens on a full-frame body against the south side of a tall tree, and programmed the camera to record images at 1-min intervals, exposure set for the sun. After sunset, I exposed for the foreground without moving the camera.
Combining all 760 frames creates a white solar stripe across the sky. So I backed off to 76 frames at 10-minute intervals. A passing cloud partially blocked the sun about two-thirds of the way across the sky.
It snowed here in northwestern Montana just five days ago - now we turn and head back towards winter.
