Watch the sun rise is a privilege of early morning
risers. Before leaving to work I mount my DSLR in my small
refractor and caught the sun rising behind some distant trees. The
image was peculiar because of a high voltage tower centered on the
solar disk and appearing to be behind it. The glare of the star makes
the visualization of the structure of the tower impossible causing the
illusion.
Nikon D40 + Sky-Watcher 400/80 in prime focus. Single 1/3200s shot at ISO200.
