The Moon has just covered the solar photosphere completely. In this time
there are good conditions for taking pictures of more distant parts of
solar corona. Therefore I am starting to take a sequence of images with gradually
increasing exposure. It is not possible to obtain the optimum contrast
in all parts of solar corona in one single image. The image you can see on
this page was taken with 1/125 s exposure. This exposure recorded prominences
and inner corona with good contrast.
Following images in the sequence show with good contrast the middle
corona but prominences and the inner corona are highly overexposed.
