Partial Solar Eclipse 10th May Albany Creek Qld Australia

[Aussie Observer]

Here are some of my attempts at photographing the eclipse. The morning started out fine but the clouds and rain soon rolled in. It started to clear at about mid eclipse (just under 50% coverage).

These images show my equipment- a Skywatcher 102 mm mak on a Celestron Nexstar SLT mount with Baader solar filter and my Skywatcher Heritage 3" dob.

The first image is taken at prime focus with my Olympus Pen EPM1 camera. The next image is taken afocally through my 3" dob. The next is taken afocally with my Nikin 3300 through my Skywatcher 102 mak.

I saw it, but could not photograph it, too late I realised one of the cats had damaged my filter....all cats are in the dog house!

Nice pic
