Looking at getting a small and light weight mount that will carry my kit for our next TSE. Star lapse looks to be a good contender. Does the tripod come with it?
Imaging in the tropics was always going to be dodgy. However, I felt that seeing the eclipse from another beach location was going to be more valuable to me than just taking the images. The way the light dances on the water has a special look to it. We have seen two eclipse above water and each were fabulous. Our third was high in the sky and in my opinion not as spectacular despite the long duration.
Take heart your images are very nice. I suspect that your fish eye lens shots will feature nicely next year.
