Partial Solar Eclipse from Hobart

Post by mattwastell »

Hi all
The Partial Eclipse from Tasmania was a very slight alignment. The skies were blue for the beginning & lasted well after mid-eclipse - my sister calls this an eye ball eclipse.....amateurs :P
Here is a quick process from about 1.24pm local time (mid-eclipse at 3% coverage).
Back to family activities!

Well done Matt - you have the advantage of being further south than me (central Vic). You must have had good weather as well. Regards, John W.

Thanks Derek - we have great view of snow capped Mt Wellington - snow is a novelty for sure.
Funny about chatting to Beekeepers - I have been helping my BIL to make bee hives!

Great eclipse shot...the subtle Ha features in sharp contrast to the lunar bite out of the disk!

A super cool image, Matt ! That disk is perfect and it shows all the beauty of the chromosphere, plus the eclipse.
