Thanks Sreedhar, I always like hearing your feedback! Yes, those are indeed sunspots! The atmosphere filtered the sun so intensely that they were visible - something I've rarely seen (maybe once before). Very surreal and awe inspiring to witness.
You are welcome, Scott! Wow.... it is amazing to see the Sunspots that clearly. Able to capture them with normal lenses and not specialized lenses for Astro photography is amazing.

Gorgeous frames! Colors, despite the saturation, are still very pleasing!
Thank you, believe it or not, the saturation was that intense, something I have never seen before in a sunset. I keep using the word surreal, but that's the only word that accurately describes it. I appreciate your comment!
#4 is best of the bunch. The texture in the sun disk, and the color gradients immediately above and below it, as well as the zoom level that gives more prominence to the star of the show add up to the best image in the series.
I can fully believe that the colors are real. We had similar wild colors in SoCal around 15 years ago during some wildfires. Purple sunsets for like 2 weeks in a row.

Thank you Boyan, I appreciate your input! Luckily, the smoke and fires have died down here but same thing happened - two weeks of purple, pink, and red sunsets. It does make for great light to photograph in, despite the unfortunate cause.
