This slide from the #coronagraphs symposium in Boulder from the talk by Sam van Kooten is quite enlightening: it shows two processing steps of a #PUNCH WFI composite, on the left still dominated by the F corona i.e. #ZodiacalLight i.e. interplanetary dust (just as seen in the Artemis II eclipse images) while on the right the - at such distance from the Sun muuuch fainter - K corona has been brought out which traces the Sun's magnetic field.
