Huge Sunspot Etc. Projection Image 11 7 2011

A second attempt at photographing this huge sunspot, this time by projecting the image of the sun through 7x50 binoculars onto a white plastic scanner cover.Any lighter spots on the suns disk are most likely from scratches and irregularities in the plastic.This time you can see some of the smaller sunspots too, and this is in natural color (white)
