Zoom out
More seriously, the default sun picture doesn't look so good. You might want, instead of reducing its size, to replace it by Nick's sunfix, which gives you a nice looking sun with corona around it. The global size will be the same, but the look will be more realistic.
Got bloom ?
Got mountains ?
Got damage ?

In the sim's main folder, there is a file called "suneffect.cfg", find it and back it up. Now open the original with notepad and make the following changes:
[General]
SunSize=xxxx
<----Make this number smaller
[LensFlare.1]
Texture="xxxxxxxxxx"
Size="x.xx"
<----And make this number smaller
[LensFlare.2]
Texture="xxxxxxxxx"
Size="x.xx"
<----Make this number smaller too.
[LensFlare.3]
Texture="xxxxxxxxx"
Size="x.xx"
<----You
could
make this one smaller too, I never saw a need.
It may take a little trial and error to get it looking the way you want it, but that's how you do it.
Specs: Asus Crosshair nForce 590 SLI,
AMD Athlon X2 6400+ w/ZeroTherm BTF90,
