Thank you Pedro! You're the MAN!

This is the image of the day on www.solarastronomy.org . These images really get the public interested and motivate them to look into this whole solar thing more. We have to remember, the little details and intricacies that we as imagers consider important usually don't translate over to the public. They want ACTION!

Thanks man.

Thank you Stephen for giving us SolarChat.

As Chris said "Lets make this THE place to share the best solar images, techniques and stories on the entire web". I could not agree more.

best regards

good catch

I passed my last plane transit around at work and made a guessing game of the type of plane it was. One of the guys looked at the timestamp on the image, went into our flight system and figured out not only what type of the plane but the flight as well.
