Well, I think it's the sun, so there! Cracking (sorry!!) shot :o))

Clever bugger, looks great. Not even my 500 would get this close

Looks just like one of those filtered shots of the sun. Great stuff.

That is so cool. I thought you discovered a new planet.

And here I thought it was a dyed Easter egg! Awesome lighting and coloring!! :)

Very space like, great light. A 500mm would not get that close to the moon.

According to Brian Cox we all came from the sun anyway, not an egg.

Fooled me - thought it was an orange!
