Solarcan Puck: photographing the path of the Sun

If you take a photo of the sky with an exposure time of several days, you can photograph the path of the Sun. You can't do that with an average camera, but you can with the specially made Solarcan. There is now a new version.
With the Solarcan, you can capture light over days, weeks or even years. This means that in the analogue photo you take, you only see the path of the Sun as it moves across the sky each day, slightly differently.

The new version is much more compact than the original and is called the Solarcan Puck.
You can take three photos with the camera. They are already in the box, and you simply remove the protective layer to start the exposure.
The Solarcan Puck is not yet available to order separately. You currently get it free when you order more than £30 worth of products from the Solarcan web shop.
Oh, and of course, you are not actually photographing the path of the Sun, but the movement of the Earth.
