Thanks everyone,
I was disapointed to start with, as I really wanted to capture the ring of fire in H-Alpha. However one cant have everything. It was a great expirence to witness the annular with the naked eye. I had also planned an animation from start to finish but alas you have seen all the H-Alpha I could manage.
I am happy now as it was really a couple of great days and I am streets ahead of those who missed out because of total cloud.

Peter I used the 90mm SolarMax on the Vixen 130mm with the DMK51and reduced it with a Vixen .65 + .5 on the nose of the camera for a full disc.
Also had a 60mm Coronado on Megrez 80 but wound up only using it visually when able with the students.
Looking forward to your presentation soon.
