I next compared it to an image taken with the SDO satellite some 1.5 million

kilometers inside the orbit of the Earth, near Lagrange point L1


 It is a collection of photos made into a film, like an animated "GIF".

So I went back to my image, cropped it and stretched certain intensities and the result is  the following:






After a bad day, I am feeling better!


Let the eclipse come,

PS I am using a P1000 Nikon
