Madisonville, TN Eclipse

[ecuador]

I processed most of my images from Madisonville, TN, where we had 2m 38s of beautiful totality under mostly clear skies. It was my first eclipse, so I did not want to be taken images, hence the Canon 550D with the Equinox 80ED on a Sky Adventurer were fully programmed. The daytime polar alignment tool and exposure calculator I had added to my iOS app before going did come through for me

A couple of examples:

The second is an HDR composite of 8 frames from 1/4 to 1/4000s. If you like these there's more in my blog post.

Two very fine captures, a really nice record of the event!

Perhaps I should update with HDR images I created after processing 42 frames together - removing lunar movement, stacking 3-4 frames for each of 11 exposure settings (1/4s to 1/4000s):
