Solar Eclipse Sequences from Greece

Dear Friends,

We were privy to GREAT weather in Greece for today's solar eclipse. For
a couple of sequences, please see
http://www.perseus.gr/Astro-Eclipses-2005-10-03.htm and/or
http://www.perseus.gr/Astro-Eclipses-2005-10-03b.htm .

A Canon EOS 300d was used at the prime focus of an AP160/f7.5 with
exposures every five minutes. Every third such exposure was ultimately
used for the construction of the sequences depicted in the above links.

Next year's solar eclipse includes totality through Greece and, more
specifically, through the Isle of Kastelorizo. What a preview we had
today in anticipation of next year's (local) totality!

Clear skies.

Anthony.

Great, Anthony! Very nice. But the world is no more the same...even the
Norvegians (read: Carsten...) were successful in seeing the eclipse...I've
been flooded with rain outside and by my kitchen sink inside....:-(

mmm....sounds like a good alternative to Lybia and Egypt...I've to consider
it

Clear skies.

I wish!

Hi Anthony
very nice sequence you got there.
We at Thessaloniki had a great time watching and showing the eclipse to
students at the Aristotle's University campus.
Visit www.ofa.gr for photos

(we met at the 4th conference in Athens and had a little chat about ISS
transit. We did see it but unfortunately we were imaging a different quarter
and eventually we missed it. Better luck next time)

Ciao Franco,

I am sorry to hear that you missed the event due to the weather. We are
blessed to have excellent weather year-round. Come to Greece! ;-)

Please do. I have a lot of friends from various parts of the world
planning to view and image the eclipse from Kastelorizo and it would be
very nice having you amongst us as well!


Clear skies.


I wish!

Hehehehehe ...

minutes of totality. ;-)

Hi Greece !
Superb Anthony (as usual...).
An advice : next time try to make a very big zoom with your AP of the moon
limb projected on the sun disk. You could see the outline of moon reliefs
onto the sun, a fine subject too rarely tackled (still better when there are
sunspots near).

Could I know what kind of solar filter you used with your camera for
obtaining such images ? Mine (http://barral.b.free.fr/astro/eclipse.htm
) are not so clear.

This is a great work !
