Sun shots - Ido.

Hello,

I've put couple of shots I took with an 4" f/10 Celestron refractor, thousand oaks type 2' sun filter and a Philips web camera. It was taken at the 01.11.03 at 13:30PM local time.
the shot has been taken from the Bareket observatory in Israel by Ido Bareket. In the last image a 2X barlow was used. I especially love the twisted shape at the last shot, at the bottom right of the sun. The seeing was horrible, a lot of humidity and a thin layer of dust stays during and after the shots was taken, but they actually came out better than I expected.
Let me know what you think.

Kind regards,
Ido.
