T of V with my tiny camera
I worked out a way to photograph it with my Lumix. I was looking at the eclipse glasses I have (from the 1999 WA annular - I tested them yesterday to make sure there were no holes by projecting the sun through on to a sheet of white paper - and had the sudden inspiration that they might be big enough to cover the camera lens. So with some fiddling and argy bargy, I have done it!
I do realise I am not going to have the most marvellous images, but I thought I might do a montage as it moves across and print myself a poster.
Image 1 is my highly technical setup - note the rubber bands from the bunches of asparagus we had for breakfast on Sunday. When the lens is zoomed out - it's not in this shot because the battery is on the charger - the glasses sit flush against the lens.
And image 2 is a test shot taken about 15 mins ago
