Eclipse totale du lundi 8 avril 2024, observé depuis un champs vers Cookshire-Eaton, au Québec, Canada. L'éclipse totale a durée 3 minutes et 27 secondes à l'endroit où je me suis rendu !
Incroyable expérience !
HSS.
Arrived to our eclipse rally location. 52 units like our motor home at this rally from all over the US. Even a couple from Alaska. This should be exciting tomorrow. If we see it great if not what an adventure it’s been.
The total eclipse of the Sun as viewed from the shores of Lac Lovering in southern Quebec Province, Canada.
“Mama! Mama! Is it happening yet?” “Yes, it’s happening! You can tell that the light is a little different and it’s affecting the colors we see!” “WOW!” Silvi and Marisol chorused. “Don’t forget to turn the iPad on!” LOL! “Don’t worry! I will, and then we will post and share how dark and strange it got!! Just hang on for a short while now!” Happy Eclipse 2024!
I will preface my commentary below with a special thank you to my beloved husband, who sat beside me, calling off the time for each minute of the entire solar event, so that I was sure to catch every change. We are highly unlikely to witness the next Solar Eclipse in 2044, as we are 72 & 84, respectively.
If anyone may think this series of eclipse photos has duplication, it is actually not the case. If you enlarge each image and look for the sunspot, AR3268, located in the center of the sun's surface, you can see the progression of the moon "eclipsing" aka covering the sun as each minute goes by. Then you can see the sunspot become visible again when the eclipse is over.
The first, second, and third stages of this series were taken in my backyard, while the fourth and fifth stages were taken near the end of my driveway. I was seated in a lawn chair, handholding and manually focusing my equipment for each shot.
I wore protective eyewear and used a "white light" lens filter-77-T by Thousand Oaks Optical of Kingman, Arizona. This type of filter is used to detect sunspots and granulation. It protects the lens, camera and eyes from permanent damage that would occur from looking directly at the sun.
In many of the photos, sunspots can be seen before, during, and after the Partial Solar Eclipse, which provides a unique perspective of the changes minute by minute throughout the entire event.
*The sunspots are outlined on this photo. Scroll over the photo to see them.
"Sunspots are areas that appear dark on the surface of the Sun. They appear dark because they are cooler than other parts of the Sun’s surface. Solar flares are a sudden explosion of energy caused by tangling, crossing or reorganizing of magnetic field lines near sunspots."

"The 5 stages of the 2024 total solar eclipse explained for April 8, 2024" Written by Robert Lea
STAGE 1
"In the initial stage of the eclipse, the moon will begin to pass in front of the sun, kick-starting a partial solar eclipse. During this phase, the darkened lunar disk of the moon will make the sun appear as if a bite has been taken out of its illuminated face. This "bite" will get bigger and bigger as the totality approaches.
STAGE 2
"First contact will last for between 70 and 80 minutes, and its conclusion will be marked by a single bright spot, or "diamond ring," appearing at the edge of the moon. This marks the second contact stage and heralds the oncoming totality.
STAGE 3
"Stage 3 and the mid-point of the total solar eclipse is the totality. At this point, the moon completely covers the solar disk. During the totality of the outer atmosphere of the sun, the corona may become visible as white streamers at the edge of the moon. This region is usually washed out by bright light from the solar surface, the photosphere. The inner atmosphere of the sun, the chromosphere, may be visible as a wispy aura around the edge of the moon.
STAGE 4
"The fourth stage of the total solar eclipse, third contact, will see the moon start to move away from the disk of the sun, thus ending the totality and starting the second partial eclipse period. Brightening appears on the opposite side of the moon as it did during the second contact period.
STAGE 5
"The fifth and final stage of the total solar eclipse. The moon moves away from the disk of the sun, meaning that at fourth contact, the moon is no longer even partially eclipsing the sun. At this point, 2024's total solar eclipse will be over."

Total Solar Eclipse, April 8, 2024. The wispy cloud cover actually added great drama to the shot! Featured on BBC Four The Night Sky (www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p0hwhggr/p0hsm1c4)
We shared the solar eclipse in the path of the totality in Judsonia, Arkansas at our brother-in-law’s ranch, with family and friends. It was hot, perfect viewing sky, instead of the clouds and rain the weathermen predicted. The cows began to lie down, the birds fell silent, it got dark as night and the stars came out! As the light from the sun began to shine more as the moon passed, roosters crowed and the cows got back up! It was just amazing!

My second eclipse, this one was quick but I think this composite shows what it feels like to watch the sun slowly obscured and the beautiful corona appear.

Sometimes pointing your camera at the right place, at the right time, and firing a burst of photos off with a large dose of luck is what it takes.

The 2024-04-08 total solar eclipse that crosses the North American continent from Mexico into USA and then Canada has garnered worldwide attention. A solar eclipse is very much like nature playing a prank on planet earth.
Yet nature would play another prank as much of Southern Ontario was cloudy during the hour that the total solar eclipse was happening. The weather was sunny the day before, and as a matter of fact it was sunny just a few hours AFTER the eclipse also. From my viewpoint, the mostly obstructed sun was only visible for around 30 seconds. This image was taken at 3:09 PM local time, about 11 minutes before the maximum eclipse at 3:20 PM local time (at which point 99.6% of the sun would have been obstructed by the moon). #TotalEclipse2024
Total solar eclipse viewed from White Rock Lake, Dallas, Texas on April 8, 2024. This photo shows the outer corona of the sun midway through totality.
[SVP faites un zoom sur le soleil pour voir ce qui suit].
Pour voir l'éclipse totale du 8 avril 2024, nous avons eu la chance d'être dans la zone de totalité dans le sud du Québec.
Voici une photo grand-angle qui montre le moment probablement le plus marquant d'une éclipse totale qui est celui surnommé "la bague en diamant", lorsqu'un point lumineux jaillit de l'obscurité, juste après la disparition totale du Soleil.
On peut aussi apercevoir, un peu plus vers le bas à droite, à la limite des nuages, la planète Vénus dans cette photo.
Grâce à un ciel assez bien dégagé, il a été possible d'immortaliser cet événement unique !

[Please zoom in on the sun to see what follows].
To see the total eclipse of April 8, 2024, we were lucky enough to be in the zone of totality in southern Quebec.
Here's a wide-angle photo showing what is probably the most striking moment of a total eclipse: the so-called "Diamond Ring", when a point of light emerges from the darkness just after the Sun has completely disappeared.
We can also see the planet Venus in this photo, a little further down on the right, at the edge of the clouds.
Thanks to the relative clear skies, we were able to immortalize this unique event!
