Solar Eclipse 2024

[woodgeek]

These are still from my 6 minute HD video using my iPhone.

Had a great view from Enosburg, VT, with my GF and my 23 yo.

The photos don't do justice to what I could see through my Canon IS binocs. But are a nice memento.

Fantastic capture of the prominences. It's nice that your kiddo could be with you. My son came with me in 2017 and we had a great time.

I think this was posted on U - Local New Hampshire, this photo was taken (I think) by Michelle Chretien.

A short imgur movie of the end of totality and the diamond ring...

Skeptical of this one, to say the least.

I'm thinking Photoshopped or AI.

Yes, for sure not right; far too low for the sun position in April around 3.30 pm...

I saw similar pics from Toronto. There's a lot of fake images going around.

AFAIK this one is real. Taken in Charleston, West Virginia by astrophotographer, Daniel Miller with a double stack of hydrogen alpha filters.



This one was a happy accident shot by Justin Lamiel.

In 2017 the sun was pretty quiet, but now it's really active and some great flare shots were caught. This is by Nick Proudfoot.

Everyone talks about the diamond, but to me that is just okay . What I'm looking for in the pictures are flares - now those are cool.

(disclaimer, I was in the 96% path, so didn't see totality first hand. Maybe if I had seen it in person instead of seeing pics/videos, I would feel differently)

I never dropped the cash for a Hydrogen alpha rig. They used to be $2k just for the temperature controlled filter.

A small plane flew in front of the sun during the partial. I was showing folks on my iPhone screen at the time, but not recording.

Totally agree. The diamond is just what you see at the end. I am in it for the corona.... a big white flower in the sky that you can trace out several times the diameter of the moon, in binoculars.

This is a cool sequence captured by Mark Dieker of the eclipse over the Meacham Southern Baptist Church outside Kinmundy, IL.

Photographers capture the total solar eclipse from Buffalo to the Adirondacks (photos, video)

The awe-inspiring eclipse prompted shutterbugs to preserve that moment in time.
