OK thanks that helped

Hi yes I'm in the uk

Hi thanks for replying. Yes I'm hoping to get the partial eclipse if possible tomorrow. I was wanting to shoot a timelapse useing a fast shutter speed of under 1 second and setting the interval to 2 seconds. The sun will start to rise here about 4 in the morning with the partial eclipse starting just after 10. Do you think this is too risky? Obviously I won't look directly at the sun I'll use live view but I'm worried about my camera getting damaged

Hi can anyone help. I'm trying to photograph the sun with foreground I'll attach an example below. I'm using a telephoto lens. I got the baader astrosolar safety film but when I looked for a YouTube tutorial on how to use it showed that the filter wouldn't allow any foreground to be photographed. It was all blacked out except for the sun. How do I photograph the sun with foreground? Do I need a filter? Thanks
