We
had great weather for the eclipse. Temperature was in the teens.
While photographing the eclipse for a progression, I saw a plane
approaching the moon. When it crossed, I snapped! Photo taken
with a Canon D60 digital, at prime focus through a Televue Pronto.

These
were taken with a Celestron 11" telscope at prime focus with
a Nikon FE-2 camera on Kodak Max 400 film. Between the frost
forming on all my lenses and the fog rolling in, I feel lucky
to have gotten any pictures at all! Visually, the color and
brightness of the eclipse were stunning. |

I took
these pictures with an Olympus D-400 mounted on a Celestron
114GT. The sky was crystal clear and the temperature was 22F.
There was frost on the telescope but it was worth it. |

The
"blur" in one of the photos is the passenger ferry leaving for
the mainland of Washington. Photos were shot with a Sony f-707,
100 ASA and varying exposures. |

The
sky was totally cloudy until 10 minutes into totality when it
just "magically" cleared. The pictures were taken at the time
indicated in the filename, with a Canon Digital IXUS through
a Meade ETX 90 with 26mm eyepiece. Shutter speeds were 0.5 or
1s. |
