Eclipse show and tell

While slowly wading through the many images I captured, I decided to create a web page with some happy snaps and newly processed data.

The link is here

The HDR data shows great promise...as I have yet to apply the flat fields I actually remembered to capture after the eclipse...and probably won't publish for a time...

Hope you enjoy the slide show

Glad you liked them. The Jackson authorities were remarkably well prepared.
There were portaloos placed every 200 mteres or so, for miles, plus at most rest stops along the surrounding roads and parks.

Traffic was still a pain...what was normally a 20 minute drive from our hotel took over two hours.

A great set there Peter. Really sets the scene. Alas I have to wait till I get home to check my RAWs. I was also surprised how far the streamers went in my jpeg versions.

Thanks Ted...I'm guessing you are still touring (lucky bugger)...but I found the RAWS had sooo much more information to give compared to the .jpg's out of the camera.
