Hi all,

Great to have a three day weekend after many weeks of work and no play. Here is a picture of our neighborhood star captured earlier this afternoon:

The Scorpion camera used with the 450mm native focal length of my A-P Stowaway frames the full solar disk nicely. Process in Astro IIDC and Adobe Photoshop CS3.

best wishes,

Alan
