OCTOBER 25TH - SOLAR ECLIPSE FROM OAKWORTH, WEST YORKSHIRE

[paulastro]

Luckily,  clear skies persisted from dawn until after the end of the eclipse, with only varying degrees of very thin cloud. There was never any danger of the sun being hidden from view.

Below are a selection of single frames taken with the Altair 80 ED-R and Olympus E-M5 Mk11 on the Scopetech Zero altaz mount.  All were taken on either 1/200 or 1/160 at 200 asa.

The single frames were taken at 10.07, 10.14, 10.29, 10.49, 10.55, 11.09, 11.40 and 11.49.

A  lovely set of images Paul.  Weather conditions favourable for  a change.

Very nice Paul. I was lucky as well with only the last 10 minutes with cloud.

Cracking photos with the sunspots visible as well. 

Very well done.

Those are excellent images Paul, and what a great sequence! I feel a little animation coming along 👍

Many thanks Mark, I'm very pleased you had some good views too.  I didn't realise the next one in the UK isn't until March 2025 until after the event - I was even more pleased I saw this one when I found out 😱.

Thank you very much Stu.  If you want to use the images and do an animation, feel free - I wouldn't have a clue how to do it 😂. 

It's funny you mention it though Stu, I've got a total of about 25 pics and it did cross my mind it would be a nice thing to do.
