Incoming!
South Africa, on September 2, 2003

I am starting to notice some really strange things. So far I have been making sure that I always take a picture in the set with the welders lens, and up to today I have not really seen anything special. But starting yesterday I did notice a strange cloud almost forming around the sun. Have a look at the 3 pictures attached. The first one on Aug 29 shows a nice clean sun, then on Sep 1st has a fluffy cloud around it, and today the cloud is much bigger. I am assuming that this is the dust cloud moving in rapidly.

Compare this to the photo taken on the same day, from Italy! Same location, relative to the Ecliptic, near where the Leo constellation touches the Ecliptic. The distinct corpus can be seen!
