Astronomy Picture of the Day!

I know I've been down on NASA a lot lately, but this picture is yet another reason why the Druids had their astronomical shit together more than the American space administration.  This picture is a prime example of what happens when you give a bunch of neo-neanderthals a telescope and a camera.  Apparently there isn't enough light in the fuckin' sun to get those guys to take a decent picture.  Now, I make no claim to be a photographer as most of my Ph.D's are in physics, astronomy, math and philosophy, but I could take a better picture of the sun with a homemade pinhole camera.  I suppose it just takes time to figure out 'low-light' photography.

Astronomer, are you busy building something right now?  Or getting another Ph.D?  Just asking because I actually enjoy your astronomy posts, even if you don't, and look forward to them.
