Posted: Thu Oct 02, 2008 5:58 pmI don't get why the shadow is so large.
I would have thought that being this far from the Sun, the rays would be more or less parallel and so the shadow should be the same size as the plane or only slightly larger.

Yup - There were a couple of layers of clouds with lots of gaps to let the sun in, I have to wait for the right combination of a break in the clouds above to let the light in, and having the clouds below to show the shadow.
Thanks again for the comments.
