Clear skies in Arizona this morning. I took this photo with Nikon's AF-S 200-500mm lens and 1.4x TC. Screw-on solar filter (95T) is from Thousand Oaks Optical. JPEG straight from camera.

Beautiful Shot Dave. I had clouds in Albuquerque so I drove 70 miles South and traded clouds for 30+ MPH wind. I had to give up right after midway of the transit due to dirt and clouds pushing down from the North. Nicely Done. :thumbup: :thumbup:
