As I had somewhat clear skies, I had to attempt a photo of the Sun on the day of perihelion. Due to the exact moment Earth was closest to the Sun happening during my nighttime, this photo was captured about some fourteen hours after perihelion. The sun remains quiet with only one small active region. Seeing wasn't great today either so this ain't my most spectacular Sun image.
