Taking pictures of a Solar Eclipse
June 10th, 2002
The Sun on June 10th, 2002. A few lovely sun spots.
Maximum eclipes here in the Seattle area.
Troy displays our sophisticated photography setup.
Another view directly though filter material (A 5 1/4" floppy disk)
Full Lunar Eclipse
October 27th, 2004
Here is an overlaid series of shots taken with my Sony DSC-V1 camera. The first shot (lower left)
is taken at a shutter speed that captured the normal brightness of a full moon. Amazing how dark the
shadow is on it's face. You'd think it was a moon phase. The next shots were mostly ASA 100 and 2 second
shutter speed. The final shot is near the center of totality, which lasted almost an hour and 15 minutes.
