My Picture

I took this picture by aiming my phone cam, directly at the sun for 9 seconds..

A very exciting image!

I assume you know, but just in case, when photographing the sun, don't look directly at it even through a lens. With a cell phone, the LCD screen intensity is probably at a safe level …

Anyway … great shot and hope you'll share others.

Especially not through a lens.  The lens focuses the Sun's rays and will burn out the retina within one second.

Beautiful shot.

Wow, Aeon, that's a great shot!  I'm sure you have filters, etc., to protect your eyes...  

How fascinating!

You have the steadiest hand I've ever imagined existed to have held your phone cam without moving for 9 seconds. I can't hold my camera by hand steady for one second. Your photo is absolutely amazing.

I agree, Buzz!  I would need a mega tripod to get this shot.  My hand moves in time to my hard beat.  And even resting the lens under my eye moves it.  My picture would be a big blurry mess!

That is cool.

Was there any particular thing that gave you that idea?
