A superb set of images, some of the best I have seen. The image before the diamond ring is my personal favourite, a real sense of "any minute now" and the Sun is back!

That's a tremendous set, the widefield's my favourite

That was very much a "try it and see" whilst I concentrated on the closeups. Just let the 5DMk3 trigger every 5 mins, ensuring I got a bright image during totality, and stacked with StarStax. Pity there is a lack of foreground interest, but very effective.

Cracking set, like the wide field collage.
