eclipse

This morning we had a partial (76%) solar eclipse as dawn broke over New Zealand, so I was of course out there to try to capture it. I was stymied by a bit of cloud during parts of the event, but it was clear for much of it. I had three cameras going, two focused on the sun itself (see my post...

I had not expected to be able to see the lunar eclipse last week--the weather forecast called for cloud until suddenly that changed on the morning of the event--so I was a bit unprepared, but I managed to get myself situated on a favourable spot as the moon was set to rise. Unfortunately, there...

During the lunar eclipse of November 2022, I was lucky enough to have no guests at the lodge we run in Oamaru, New Zealand, and to have a perfectly clear night ideal for a night of shooting. I even had the perfect spot from which to shoot the scene--a newly poured foundation for the house we're...

My decision to capture the Eclipse of the Super Blood Moon was a very last minute deal. An hour before sunset I looked at an display of the eclipse area and realized I could get some of eclipse. My recollection had been that in California I would be too near the edge and it wouldn't be that...

That's a mouthful! But that's what everyone is calling this eclipse from May 25th 2021. As most of you know, I spent 7 hours driving around from going to the Desert and then to the beach and then ultimately back home where I ended up capturing this at 4:21am. It was a lot of driving to end up...

This one looks like there is some cauldron up in the sky opening up to create the eclipse to me. Like some celestial pot was boiling and an incomplete moon is seen as a part of it's missing. :) As some of you might know, for the Lunar Eclipse I drove over 7 hours yesterday going out to Joshua...

A lot of firework displays were canceled as Amy mentioned in her thread. I found a listing of 40 of them still being put on in Colorado. As I scrolled through the list the one thing I had in my mind was with the Prenumbral Lunar Eclipse happening after sunset, I thought perhaps I could shoot the...

Here is one of mine from the Lunar Eclipse with the Super Blood Wolf Moon in 2019. I was in Los Alamos, New Mexico and it was cold out! I was dressed in snow pants, snow jacket, snow hat, snow boots, wool socks, hand warmers in my gloves, and it was still pretty cold. This was shot with the...

I finally got done processing another from the Super Moon Eclipse from Huntington Beach California. All comments are welcome, Jim

Another lunar eclipse from yesterday morning. I was in Huntington Beach shooting up on the pier to get some elevation and to also be able fill the bottom of the frame with just water, and to be able to move horizontally in the composition to place waves (which I added later as I started to shoot...

Even though I got back late yesterday driving from Colorado, May wanted to go shoot the Super Moon Eclipse this morning at the beach. So I woke up at 4:30am and we headed down to Huntington Beach. I knew from using TPE that the moon would set over the Long Beach/Palos Verde Peninsula area, but...

I had shared several shots of the eclipse in August just after it happened, but since then I've processed another version in B&W. It is a wider view so you can see Mercury in the lower left corner and it includes data from a longer exposure, allowing me to show more corona and more detail in the...

Third contact of the 2017 Eclipse as totality ends

Corona and earthshine during totality of the 2017 eclipse.

Second contact of the 2017 Eclipse as totality begins

Corona and prominences as totality begins.

Here's my take on the transition from full sun to total eclipse during Monday's event from Corvallis. Obviously there are lots of ways to present this, but for the moment I like the simple linear version. Also including a larger version from second contact.

I need to spend some time editing, I know I can get more out of the files I have, but I figured I needed to share something before total burnout sets in...
