2192 Solar Big sunspot

Several solar disk images from FB showing the  partial eclipse from USA and the big sunspot piqued my interest to have a look here too. . Using low elevation clouds as filter i shot the following using the SX50HS handheld or using tree/ lamp post  as mono-pod. 



24 Oct 2014.. caught me by surprise and managed to have one shot of the solar disk in cloud showing the #2192 spot

The second day went to Mt Faber for a walk and get the disk in the setting sun. Several pple came along taking pic with their hand-phones. 


The highest pedestrian walkway (>34m)  in Singapore

Didn't  know the Henderson Wave  is so pretty at night. My first night visit 



The shadow and the light bands ...


Comfortly shaped for many to lean on and texting away?.

Bright sodium lights from the street spill over. They can be seen even in the air.
