About 20 minutes after First Contact682 viewsA big chunk of the Sun is gone already.

Post-Totality 3681 viewsThe Sun hits the horizon, about a quarter through post-totality.

Post-Totality 2680 viewsBut at my back I always hear
Time's winged chariot hurrying near
And yonder all before us lie
Deserts of vast eternity.
- Andrew Marvell, To His Coy Mistress

NGC 7023 - the Iris Nebula in Cepheus680 viewsA bright reflection nebula in the constellation Cepheus, about 1300 light-years away. Actually NGC 7023 is the star cluster inside the nebula, which is properly designated LBN 487.

IC2118, the Witch Hunt Nebula680 viewsFaint reflection nebula in Eridanus, usually known as the Witch Head Nebula, but it doesn't look much like a witch's head in this view, shot with an IDAS NBZ nebula enhancement filter, so maybe this version is best titled the "Witch Hunt Nebula." About 900 light-years away; illuminated by the nearby supergiant blue-white star Rigel in Orion.

Sharpless 2-82 - The Little Cocoon nebula in Sagitta680 viewsAlso known as the Little Trifid Nebula, LBN 129 and DG 159. Ionized by the B0.5V star HD 231616.

Totality 3679 viewsA longer exposure shows up the corona somewhat better. We are now approaching the end of totality.

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 land

NGC7000 - The North American Nebula679 viewsNarrowband image of an H-II emission nebula in the constellation Cygnus; only part of the nebula is visible since it is too large to fit entirely in the field of view of the telescope. 2,590 light-years distant and 90 light-years across.

Totality minus 15 minutes678 viewsC2 - 15 min 23 sec

M64 - the Black-eye Galaxy678 viewsA relatively isolated spiral galaxy 17 million light-years away in the northern constellation Coma Berenices. A dark band of absorbing dust partially in front of its bright nucleus inspires its "Black Eye" nickname.

IC2177 - The Parrot Nebula678 viewsUsually known as the Seagull Nebula, but to me it looks more like a parrot. An HII region lying along the border between Canis Major and Monoceros.
