Lisa made a cardboard pinhole camera. The pinhole is made on a sheet of aluminum - the light passes through and produces an inverse image of the sun (or eclipse). We had so much fun with it, so we poked more holes in it! Paul took this pic while using the camera. #TotalEclipse2024
This pic was taken with a 300mm telephoto lens with three stacked ND filters. The three filters reduced light by 1/4, 1/8, and 1/16 respectively, for a total of 1/512 light transmittance (0.195% of actual light enters the lens).
Even with these filters, the photo is over-exposed. The light entering is so strong it bounces inside the lens and produces artifacts - i.e. shadow images of the actual image. #TotalEclipse2024

Totality! The sun's corona is visible. I can't remember if the filters were on the camera for this image. This and the other pics were taken in Urbana, Ohio, at Freshwater Farms. It's a fish hatchery - but they also hosted an eclipse festival! #TotalEclipse2024
Staff and active military assembled in front of Bldg. 1 (The Tower) at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center (Walter Reed) on April 8 to observe the partial solar eclipse which was visible over a large portion of the United States.

With less than two minutes till totality, the approaching storm clouds obscured the sun, to only emerge some ten minutes later. NO totality for you!
Why spend money on a tripod for solar eclipse?
A friend took this photo of another friend, John W., who exhibited this ingenious side of himself! 😂

Tried taking a few pictures of the eclipse but my phone wasn’t able to capture some good ones plus the clouds started getting in the ways towards the peak.
Totality! Only the sun's corona is visible. At the bottom, slightly left, a prominence from the sun can be seen (purple blur). This is an area of ionized gas projecting from the sun's surface. Down here on the ground it appears like nighttime, and the temperature has cooled. One of us even put on a sweater due to the chill! #TotalEclipse2024

Getting close to totality - This pic was taken with a 300mm telephoto lens with three stacked ND filters. The three filters reduced light by 1/4, 1/8, and 1/16 respectively, for a total of 1/512 light transmittance (0.195% of actual light enters the lens).

The 15 minutes before and after the 3:14 p.m. maximum occlusion (94%) is compressed at 1 frame per second, or about 1 minute of playback time for the real time half-hour. Alone or in groups people sought out this high terrain overlooking the valley of the Grand River and city of Grand Rapids, Michigan, below. Within 10 or 15 minutes after the peak, many were leaving this view at Lookout Park just north of the city center.
The camera records something different to the human eye. The overall effect was dusk approaching, as if sunset was only an hour or 45 minutes away. But the pace was different. Between 2:10 and 3:10 the transition from blue sky and full sun to the slightly 'twilight' feeling seemed to progress logarithmically, becoming noticeable by the minute from 3:00 to the peak at 3:14. What normally diminishes in an hour only took 10 minutes. Then reversing the curve, each successive minute after the peak brightened noticeably, as if the cosmic dimmer switch turned up click after click.

starting to process eclipse images from 8April. This is just prior to C2 (about 10-15 seconds before beginning of totality)
Jack gets the best birthdays ever! First a rocket launch in Florida two years ago, now a total eclipse! #eclipse2024🌘 #totaleclipse
Today is the big day of the Solar Eclipse that will be visible across a wide path of North America. At the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor), there were numerous events. The beautiful weather and the fact that the next one will be in this area some twenty years from now brought many people about. The eclipse in Ann Arbor was almost a total one, around 98% coverage of the sun. For totality, you had to go to Ohio. It was nice to participate in an activity that we all experienced at the same time. When the eclipse was at its greatest coverage of the sun, there were cheers in the Law Quad.
