White light observations of the brightness distribution of the solar corona as measured during total eclipses viewed with instrumentation in Kazakhistan in 1981. A 15 sec exposure, made on Ektachrome 64 film, provided data for calculating brightness curves as a function of radial distance from the solar equator and poles. Brightness contributions from the F and K coronal components were then derived. Sample data are provided for the variations in brightness with the number of sunspots, for the relationship of the brightness to the solar cycle, and the contribution of the inner corona to the total brightness. Two successive photographs of an evolving solar flare at the beginning of an eclipse are used to track the acceleration of the jet, variations in emission intensity with altitude above the sun and at different wavelengths, and the different emissions from cold and hot material.
