Thanks Ken,

I am happy with it, just kicking myself for not being ready.

I'm having a ball just looking at all the images everyone took so far.
They're all very interesting.

Well done all.

Nice shots RB & 'the meister'...

[davidpretorius]

you are harsh on yourself mister meister, but not as much as asimeister.

they are great shots!!

All of the images are good and as Greg said, I am so pleased that they are all being included in Decembers AS&T!!!

Hi guys, cool shots, thanks,

I made some pics with my 'not so good for astronomy' digital camera, it was awesome here and I was taken by surprise. I thought 7% meant you could hardly tell when in truth it was obviously amazing for all of us.

The first one is direct using camera only, the second is through a Celstron C8 with 40mm eyepiece. (all i had at the time)

Nice photos everyone, here's my effort just point and shoot with the Nikon.

Well great pic's all, now if we could only rerun the eclipse that would be great as we have clear skies tonight.

Glad so many pics were taken.
Almost makes me feel like I was there.
What's the next big event on the calender?
