Almost a Venus tear drop

Interesting day! Spent most of it fighting clouds and the neighbours tree but managed to get a dozen or so videos. Had to use registax 5 for processing as 6 creates terrible onion rings on the sun. Even 5 does it a bit. Tried to see the tear-drop effect but a cloud got in the way. Ah well have to wait another 105 years. Here's two I've processed so far.
Cheers
