Sunset - Easter Sunday 2011

 

This Sunset photo is taken from an altitude of 300m towards Ktena at the back side of Gerania Mountains, Korinthia, Greece. Two big sunspots are clearly visible in the picture. Although this photo is taken with a 200mm telephoto lens the disc of the sun looks very impressive.

This image appears also on Spaceweather web site.
