The Sun picture is still the best one, which brings out the brightness associated with the dark Sun spots. And I love the comparison between the size of the Earth and the size of the active region on the Sun.

And Owlice, I just love your philosophical Batman and Joker quote!!!

Thanks, Ann! I must have read that Foxtrot comic a hundred times, and it still makes me laugh!
