🔗: The sun, in ultraviolet

A photograph of the sun taken through ultraviolet filters.

A post for #WeblogPoMo2024.


An example of the fun, intriguing content I’d post on bensinterests: on 29th March 2015 I found this photograph of the sun viewed through ultraviolet:

A photograph of the sun through an ultraviolet lens. It looks kinda oily, slick and rainbowish.

In retrospect there’s some things here I’m surprised at: no context, no source, no explanation1. It’s just… fascinating.


  1. I’ve described the image as being ‘through ultraviolet filters’ today but damned if I know if that’s true ↩︎
