Caption: Figure 1.

CCD images of the Stokes parameters recorded with the spectrograph slit parallel to the limb (5'' inside the limb). Note the depolarization signatures in the Q/ I wings in the 55''–75'' spatial interval. Corresponding U/ I wing signatures are seen at the same wavelength positions, but at a different spatial location, for example, in the 20''–30'' interval.
