Got my solar filter and finally took my first pictures of the sun. It's a somewhat scary process looking at the Sun through a telescope; double, triple, and quadruple-checking that the solar filter is indeed securely attached. But, it really is incredible looking (safely) through a telescope and finally comprehending just how enormous and nuclear-fusion-y our Sun really is. You can make out one little sun spot near the lower right edge.
