Japanese navy? Nah, just an #OpticalIllusion! Or is that what they'd want us to think?? ๐Ÿ™„ The second image shows #sunspots better. Taken seconds apart. Today's #sunset produced a bit cleaner red hues, the air seems cleaner, too.

Double #Sunset, take two. Or is it a #VennDiagram? #Boolean NOT maybe? #Tatooine? ๐ŸŽด

Interestingly, three #sunspots are visible on the projected image. Just barely, but they're sunspots no. 3239, 3242 and 3245. They match in topology with today's #SDO HMI Intensitygram perfectly, if rotated a bit counterclockwise as expected for a winter month in temperate to high latitudes of the Northern hemisphere (SDO data releases are, I believe, corrected for orbital observatory's inclination to the #Sun's equator so it's kept nicely in the middle of their images) https://www.spaceweatherlive.com/en/solar-activity/sunspot-regions.html
