Description

I travelled with a group of astrophotographers to a remote area in the Atacama Desert of Chile, to see the total solar eclipse that ocurred on July 2th, 2019. We camped a couple of days before, to avoid traffic jams, and on the day of the event we set our telescopes and waited. We knew what was going to happen, but still, to see the day turn night in an instant, and a black sun floating in the sky, surrounded in a beautiful corona, left us speechless and somewhat paralyzed.

I captured the partial stage of the eclipse using a Spectrum Telescope Glass Filter, and when the totality came i removed the filter and captured some images of the corona as fast as i could. I could probably done it better, but still i think this images are a nice testimony of an experience i would never forget.
