Eclipse at Trinity Beach

[CB (Chris)]

Although dissappointing on missing the total eclipse with great friends from the Newcastle Astronomy Society, the Maitland and Wangi camera clubs Liz and I had a great time.

The photos below show where we setup at Trinity Beach Blue Lagoon Resort. The last few were taken at total darkness.

Words cannot discribe the emotions everyone felt at that time.

Thanks for looking.

Hi Chris - Peter here.
It was great to meet you up there and nice to see some pictures of our location. Thanks for posting them. It was certainly an experience even though we missed totality.
