5-Inch Telescope.

David Tyler poses with the 5-inch refracting telescope equipped with a hydrogen alpha filter used to capture images of the sun in High Wycombe.
These pictures taken with computer software ' caution must be exercised with equipment as, 'Sun is very dangerous to retina eyes'. It's not bad for a picture taken in the back garden. The sun’s fiery surface is captured in incredible detail from 93 million miles away. The stunning shot was taken by 71-year-old Dave Tyler. A photographer and amateur astronomer.
The back garden astronomer: The dome in David Tyler's garden, containing the equipment used to take pictures of the sun. Like many of us Mr Tyler has the odd hobby and for this he sits out in a open shed in his back garden. But where we might have the compost heap or a vegetable patch. He has installed a 5-inch refracting telescope, equipped with a hydrogen-alpha solar filter. The filter allows him to safely observe and unbelievable grate photographs from the high-energy activity on our nearest star. Mr Tyler said: ‘When you look at the Sun you are looking at a orange star in high-magnification and detail – as  he finds it fascinating and his photos prove this. as he says it is about understanding our existence and our place in the solar system. with more data gain more accurate in-dept knowledge as to suns cycles along with its atomic threads. As art view says thank you David Tyler.

 Mr Tyler, from High Wycombe, in Buckinghamshire, pieced together thousands of frames using computer software to create the picture. 

Dave Tyler uses computer software to piece together thousands of images taken from his back garden in Wycombe to produce this stunning portrait of the sun. A side-no view of a plasma burst - known as a prominence when viewed from the side - captured in High Wycombe. David Tyler and the equipment he used to take pictures of the sun in High Wycombe. What appear to be bursts of flame are known as filaments – when huge masses of superheated plasma jump off the Sun’s surface.

They are formed by short-lived magnetic loops hundreds of thousands of miles long that hold dense gas suspended thousands of miles above the 6,000C surface of the Sun. Mr Tyler photographed the Sun from February 15 to 19, but was unable to follow it any further because of cloudy weather.he retired engineer, who lives with wife Wendy, a teacher, and son  Thomas, 18, has been a keen  astronomer for the last 40 years. He built his first telescope when  he was 29 and has been an  enthusiast ever since. After taking the pictures, Mr Tyler pieced the images together like a jigsaw puzzle using computer software. The filament appears etched on the surface of the sun but is actually far away from it, as the sideways photographs clearly show.

71 year-old David Tyler build his own observatory to house his five inch telescope. A streak of superheated plasma across the surface of the sun - captured from a Wycombe back garden.
When the filament is seen from the side like this - it is known as a prominence. Mr Tyler said: 'Filaments occur when magnetic fields have snapped. 'This in turn causes the local hydrogen plasma to jump off the surface of the sun in a sweeping arc.
' The telescope was fitted with a hydrogen alpha filter to capture these incredible shots from 93 million miles away. The white 'clouds' around the filament are breaks in the magnetic field. Dave, a retired CAD mechanical designer, imaged the sun over 5 days.
Nasa has also produced its own version of Dave's images - but relies on an orbiting spacecraft to capture its shots of activity on the sun's surface.
