Description

Took a solar puck with me to my dark site, Starship#744 in northern Arizona. I had my Esprit 120 and Esprit 80 set up for a week astrophotography, July 13-20, 2023. I stuck the puck on my camper, facing east and left it there for the week. I composited a panorama photo of 3 shots taken with my Canon EOS 6D II in the foreground (otherwise the scopes would have been covered in the foreground part.)

The solar puck uses the sun to expose the photopaper within it, thru a pinhole. 
The image is then inverted, and also horizontally flipped, and adjusted in photoshop before blending in the foreground shot.
