Eclipse composite, Clifton Beach

[Rob_K]

At last, got around to a 'final' eclipse image! Not a masterpiece but I'm very pleased that I got this much considering I was lucky to see anything of it at all and that I'd pretty much written off this eclipse as any realistic sort of photographic opportunity. Only got a few brief glimpses of the Sun during the first partial phase and for most of the second.

Still can't believe that the longest clear break was 2 mins and 5 secs and that it coincided exactly with totality. How lucky is that?

Here's a link to a larger version:

Hi Rob - that is a sweet collection of images of the event!

That's pretty awesome. You should blow it up, frame it and hang it on the cool wall.

A great collection of images from your trip. I am also partial to the shadow bands image.
