Glad this worked out.  Good luck with the project.  Best regards, Barbara

Ford and Katy:  Just so you know, Image Collection said they do not have the rights to this picture--I checked with them first.

The photographer, Tom Melham, if he's the same person, used to work here (Books, I think), if I remember correctly.  He should be findable.  Perhaps the pic was made while he was here?  But then, I guess, Image Collection would have information.

Thanks to both of you for your help.

Hi, Phil. Sounds like a great project. I hope we can be helpful!

Katy, would you mind checking the image at this URL to see if we can
permit Dr. Scherrer to use it in the Web site he's creating (with
credit to the photographer), or if he would need to negotiate a
license to use it from Image Collection or directly from the
photographer? Thanks for your help,   - Ford

I've got some calls in, and when I get an answer I'll let you know. Seems like it should be a simple thing to find out...alas. I loved working on the sun article and was very pleased to see the issue at the Stanford display at AGU. People seemed interested. I tried hard to see those sunspots last week--guess I need more practice. Even through properly filtered binoculars, I couldn't find them. I'll get back to you asap. Thanks for writing.
