22-07-2009 HK Partial Eclipse

Today is a long waited solar eclipse. It is a long day for me. Handling several telescopes and photographic equipments made me busy perhaps very excited! Luckily I got some closed-up, wide angle and some movies. However, the webcam didn’t work well and finally ruined the H-alpha photos. The auto focus of the DV didn’t work properly, so eclipse movie gone! What are left are some photos. Shortly after the eclipse activity, I got several appointments to go. I don’t have time to process the photos today. Here are some pre-release.

By the way, I didn’t catch the last 15 minute of the eclipse because of the bloody clouds! Good grief!

  1. There's pretty strong internal reflection, maybe you will want to tilt your solar filter a little bit?
