Details:
This evening an unusual combination of cloud and smoke-haze made the sun appear to split in two (first two images) before starting to set over Murahwa Hill (third image). In the final close-up view, four sunspots are visible including the pair AR 2598 (lower middle), AR 2599 (largest) and AR 2560 (top). The pictures were taken using a Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ60 camera in sunset scenery mode and up to x 60 zoom magnification.
