Hi. I found out the Penumbral Eclipse was happening last night and decided to try and image it especially going for an image at the start and an image at the maximum.
At the start i was aiming for an image every 5 mins but high level cloud put a stop to that. So was happy just to get some images and the sky was clear at start and finish imaging times.
I put together a side by side comparison to show the level of darkness created by the eclipse. To the naked eye it was minimal, it shows up more in the images. Although having an image to look at whilst comparing them on the camera screen made it easier to tell buy naked eye.

Both images have had the exact same processing. i e what was done to one, the exact same setting was applied to the other. Mainly just sharpening, contrast, brightness etc.
There is a discolouration on the images. i think caused by C.A, processing or both.
Both images are single images. 500D-C102HD Achro refractor-ISO 100-EXP 1/160-EQ3.
This is just a comparison really, i will have another go at trying to remove the discolouration.
Steve.
