It's a tradition now, we never miss to take a picture of the sunset right behind the dome of the Cerro Tololo Interamerican Observatory (CTIO), as watched from our own observing room. This "personal event" happens twice a year, on November, 2nd, and on February, 8th.
On this particular day the solar disk didn't show any sunspot, nevertheless the image by itself remains quite appealing...
