Shot with 5" f/7.5 ED triplet refractor
Great detail including arching steamers at the sun's North and South poles are captured in this photo along with a faint view of "earthshine" on the obscuring moon's surface. This high dynamic range image was created by merging seven different exposures ranging from 1/4000 second to 3 seconds.
