Jesús Carmona de Argila, that's the most dramatic image I've seen of the Sun - it sure looks as if the Sun was on fire!
Robert Farrimond, just a few hours ago I wrote in another forum here that IQ Aurigae is one of my absolutely favorite stars, and here you have photographed it!

It's a star that is classified as an A-type star even though it is as hot and blue and almost as bright as a B4-type star. Appropriately, you have managed to bring out its exquisite "blueness", as it is indeed the bluest-looking star in your image! The asterism, of which IQ Aurigae is an important member, is called "The Leaping Minnow", by the way. That's a charming name, I think.
You have also managed to bring out the beauty of nebulae IC 405 and IC 410!
