Description

Adding this to my collection for family and friends. These are shots that I took from my backyard on that date. (Yeh, I know, lucky me! But then I pay dearly with clouds for 70% of the year here. And the reason why I now have the time to do this presentation.) I had set up my 5 inch Mak Newt for observing for the many friends we had over for the day and piggybacked my daughter's Nikon DSLR on the telescope. The lens was just the stock lens that came in the box with the camera. Tracking was on my Losmandy GM8 mount so that I would not have to reset each time for viewers. I built a decent solar filter for the camera setup and had a remote intervalometer, so that I could fire off exposures without missing the actual event. The only time I needed to fuss with the camera was when taking off the filter during totality and making quick exposure changes here and there.

This mosaic panel of events does not capture the detail very well because of the renditions caused by my Office suite software. So I may add a few revisions to include the more detailed panels. But they don't really add that much more.
