| Summary: The New Moon passed in front of
the sun, producing a partial solar eclipse visible across much
of the Pacific Ocean. The best observing sites were Japan, where
the eclipse happened on Oct. 14th, and Alaska and Hawaii, where the
eclipse began at sunset on Oct. 13th. [more]

I was
on Kauai for work when I realized this partial solar eclipse
was to happen. When the sun's diameter was obscured by one-half,
about one-third surface area, the landscape took on a surrealistic
tone. The clouds added some flavor during the moment. Exposures
taken every 2 1/2 minutes using Nikon D70 w/ 28-105 Nikkor lens.
Solar filter was welder's glass #12 placed in a makeshift lens
carrier. |

The
clouds had just subsided, and the partial eclipsed sun was just
setting. Photo details: Olympus Camedia 2040-Z digital camera.
No enhancement. |

I took
this image with a simple 3x zoom digital camera. The filter
is self-made (20 years old, fully exposed black&white film,
maybe 'unsafe'). The sunset was incredible
with a green and a blue flash. |

A roof's
