After a protracted sunspot minimum the sun is finally starting to put on a show. Here is the view from an hour ago, taken with 7D, 100-400L + 1.4x extender (and cropped a bit too) and B&W 10-stop ND filter. I used an additional 3-stop filter to focus, but took it off for the shot as it affected sharpness.

Thought a direct sun shot would kill the sensor?
Anyway, it's cool!
