In a white light photo, the part of the Sun that we see is called the photosphere. It has a temperature of about 6000 degrees Celsius, much cooler than the corona. Sometimes there are notable dark spots.These sunspots come and go, so look at the Sun again in a few days to see how its appearance has changed.n a white light photo, the part of the Sun that we see is called the photosphere.

However, at ground level sunlight is 44% visible light, 3% ultraviolet (with the Sun at its zenith), and the remainder infrared. Thus, the atmosphere blocks about 77% of the Sun's UV, almost entirely in the shorter UV wavelengths, when the Sun is highest in the sky (zenith). Of the ultraviolet radiation that reaches the Earth's surface, more than 95% is the longer wavelengths of UVA, with the small remainder UVB.
