relative size of the mooon was bigger than I thought... proms are having a problem peeking out!
Good to see that it was clear enough for all to see. Great spectacles... love them.

Here is a longer exposure where you can see more clearly how close the sun and the moon were dancing with the clouds!

I dragged my SV90 apo up here in my carry on luggage Greg. Had a vixen porta mount in my checked in luggage. Camera is a Canon 1100D.
First pic was 1/400 ISO 100, second shot is 1/30 ISO 100.
Would have loved more pics but things happened so quick! Missed the diamond ring shot because I bumped the scope when removing the solar filter, and then it was cloud impaired for the second diamond ring, plus I was enjoying it with the naked eye by then!

And the eclipse is complete. Just snapped this one through a partial break in the clouds a few seconds ago. Moon is the slight bite at the bottom right.
What a fantastic experience!

Awesome job Andrew. Thank you for posting, I particularly like your longer corona shot and also the last one, it adds a bit of character having some light cloud over the sun with the sun spots.
Regards
Wayne
