Photos Sun Alan Friedman

Friedman lives in a pretty suburb of a large city (Buffalo, NY), where city flare disables observing distant galaxies and nebulae. So he focused his research on the objects of the solar system - the Moon, planets and of course, the sun. I must say that quite often it is very good at the beautiful pictures showing the Sun in a new light.



Beautiful and unusual images of the sun it gets through a special filter that blocks all light except for a narrow dark red band, which emits intense hot hydrogen. Until recently, these filters were available only to professionals.

This image of our day-star hit the pages of Bad Astronomy, magazines Discover, Wired, has been published on the websites of many newspapers around the world.
