Sol

Finally, the clouds parted and Sol appeared. I’m happy to report that the rig shown in my previous post was up to the job of snapping the Sun, and my camera doesn’t seem to be damaged. Venus, of course, is long gone having travelled about 300,000 miles in its orbit since 4th contact just after dawn.
