Corona at 96.3%

Having fun with some eclipse data tonight. Thought this might be of interest. Two shots taken 8 seconds apart, centred on 2nd contact minus 3 minutes 6 seconds, corresponding to an eclipse magnitude of about 96.3% if my math is correct, at which point the filter came off. Besides a lot of lens flare, the dark lunar limb is clearly seen against the solar corona. The umbra was well over 100km away at that stage.
