Medjugorje Pictures of the Sun
Taken by Michael K. Jones

There are a few things I have not shared from my Medjugorje pilgrimages. I have now decided to share these unusual set of photos taken in September of 1989 during my first pilgrimage to Medjugorje. These picture appear to have been taken late evening or at night but all picture were taken as the sun was starting to set and the evening miracle of the sun in Medjugorje was taking place. Though I did see unusual phenomenon in the sun I did not see anything like I found in these picture when my film was developed. All picture below were taking one after another on top of Cross Mountain. I sensed a inner voice with a strong calling telling me to go to the top of Cross Mountain to take picture of the Miracle of the Sun. Because the original size of these pictures are quite large the pictures have been reduced in size so this page will open quicker and a close-up picture of the sun has been added.

Property of Medjugorje USA only, thank you.


Though taken during the beginning of sunset at the top of Cross Mountain the overall picture came out dark. With my eyes the sun was bright yellow with a disk floating inside and I could see the surrounding landscape easily in the existing light. The camera however short this dark photo with a blood red sun. In the close-up picture you will see a few white dot, they are not stars but result of age of the photos and from being pulled from a sticky type photo album. Left picture is downsize of original photo and right picture is cropped close-up version of same picture. 


The first pictures in this series it show how the sun is starting to turn red. In this set of picture we see the sun has completely turned blood red. Left picture is downsize of original photo and right picture is cropped close-up version of same picture. 


This next set of photos show after the sun turned blood red the sun starts to change into a heptagon shape. A heptagon is a polygon made up of 7 equal sides & 7 equal angles. Left picture is downsize of original photo and right picture is cropped close-up version of same picture.


In this last set of picture in the series you should note the tree to the right side  is the same location as the set of pictures above with the red heptagon sun. This shows these picture were taken one right after the other making it more difficult to explain how the sun can not only change shape but color in a matter of a minute or so. After the red blood heptagon the sun turns back to yellow which is the color of the sun I saw with my eyes when taking all these picture but the heptagon shape remains.
