First Contact739 viewsVenus takes a tiny nibble out of the Sun's disk just past the 5 o'clock position.

Pre-Totality 2670 viewsAnd here face down beneath the sun
And here upon earth’s noonward height
To feel the always coming on
The always rising of the night:

First Contact plus 2 hours581 views

28 Minutes after Third Contact742 viewsC3 + 28:08

First Contact plus 6 minutes641 viewsThe lightweight mount I was using made the scope sensitive to vibration - hence the shaky picture.

Prior to First Contact640 viewsWith the H-Alpha setup, the Sun doesn't entirely fit into the field of view of the 70mm scope.

Sundown711 viewsTaken just after sunset, this unfiltered shot provided a fitting conclusion to the eclipse experience.

About 4 minutes from Second Contact695 viewsThe Moon is rapidly overtaking the Sun.

The annular solar eclipse of October 14, 2023 - Montage of 24 images733 viewsA montage illustrating the progress of the annular eclipse of October 14, 2023, as seen from Bryce Point, Bryce Canyon, Utah, from immediately prior to first contact to immediately after fourth contactNov 17, 2023

Comet 2020/F3 NEOWISE951 viewsConditions for photographing Comet NEOWISE from my observatory near Anza, California were less than ideal. The comet was visible only in the northwest for a couple hours after sunset, at most, which put it squarely in the Los Angeles light dome. Another factor involved was the inexperience of the photographer - I hadn't done any night shooting with my DSLR before and I never got the camera focused properly, so the stars came out somewhat bloated and fuzzy. They also show some coma, I don't know why. But at least the comet itself came out reasonably well.Aug 23, 2020

Pre-Totality 6758 viewsAnd Baghdad darken and the bridge
Across the silent river gone
And through Arabia the edge
Of evening widen and steal onSep 07, 2019

Pre-Totality 8635 viewsAnd over Sicily the air
Still flashing with the landward gulls
And loom and slowly disappear
The sails above the shadowy hullsSep 07, 2019

Pre-Totality 7722 viewsAnd deepen on Palmyra’s street
The wheel rut in the ruined stone
And Lebanon fade out and Crete
High through the clouds and overblownSep 07, 2019

Pre-Totality 2670 viewsAnd here face down beneath the sun
And here upon earth’s noonward height
To feel the always coming on
The always rising of the night:Sep 07, 2019

Pre-Totality 3674 viewsTo feel creep up the curving east
The earthy chill of dusk and slow
Upon those under lands the vast
And ever climbing shadow growSep 07, 2019

Pre-Totality 9679 viewsAnd Spain go under and the shore
Of Africa the gilded sand
And evening vanish and no more
The low pale light across that landSep 07, 2019
