Lovely work, Jen!

I'm happy to see you taking up a pencil and paper to the Sun. The PST is a wonderful instrument. Shows a hell of a lot of detail,eh! I was fortunate to have had a PST lent to me by a fellow IISer a couple of month's back. I had it for about a month - ooooh, it is a really nice beastie! The surface texture of Sol is an interesting one to reproduce... something I'm working out.

Here's a sketch I managed through gaps in clouds on Sunday. Right now if it were not for my Quark, I would be sketching nothing! Two brilliant proms, both very detailed and subtle, and both very different in structure. Transparency wasn't great on Sunday, but better than nothing.
