A slightly different take on the eclipse, as I was running for a train with luggage I had no big zoom lens or tripod so I focused on the trees in the foreground.

Taiwan people can see solar eclipse for over two hours this morning
TAIPEI, Taiwan -- People in Taiwan will have a rare opportunity to watch a spectacular solar eclipse for more than two hours this morning. Experts remind people to use protective lenses to avoid retina damage from viewing the natural phenomenon with the naked eye. The longest total solar eclipse of the century will occur today and people in Taiwan will be able to see between up to 68.6 percent and 86 percent of the eclipse of the sun depending on various locations on the island, according to the Astronomical Observatory under the Central Weather Bureau.
A solar eclipse occurs when the moon's orbit moves between the Earth and the sun so that the sun's disc is fully or partially covered temporarily.
The event will be visible in many parts of Asia, but the total eclipse will be seen only along a narrow corridor stretching from northern India, eastern Nepal, northern Bangladesh, Bhutan, the northern tip of Myanmar, central China and the Pacific Ocean, including the Ryukyu Islands (Okinawa), Marshall Islands and Kiribati.
The full eclipse will last for 6 minutes 39 seconds.
Taiwan, which is located very close to the corridor, will see a partial eclipse starting at 8:22 a.m., with the maximum eclipse expected to appear between 9:36 a.m. and 9:41 a.m. this morning.
Residents on the frontline island of Kinmen will catch the earliest glimpses of the eclipse starting at 8:18 a.m.
People in southern Tainan County will be the earliest on the island of Taiwan beginning at 8:22 a.m.
The biggest glimpse of the eclipse of the sun at 86.8 percent will be experienced on the Fuguei Islet of Taoyuan County's Shihmen Township in northern Taiwan, and a 70 percent eclipse can be observed in central and southern Taiwan, the officials said.
In Taiwan's southern tip of Oluanbi in Pingtung County, viewers will see 68.6 percent eclipse of the sun.
In Taipei area, the partial eclipse will start at 8:23 a.m. and continue for two hours and 42 minutes until 11:05 a.m. with the maximum eclipse occurring at 9:40 a.m.
To mark the spectacular natural event, various organizations have long prepared for the arrival of this solar eclipse. Some have even dispatched teams to different cities in China.
The Chiayi Amateur Astronomers Association will broadcast it live online from Taiwan and China.
Yeh Shang-ai, a spokesman for the association, said the broadcast will be a cooperation project with various local elementary schools. Lantan Elementary School in Chiayi City will be the main site of the broadcast, while another team will send live images from Jiangsu Province's Suzhou City, one of the Chinese cities located in the path of total eclipse viewing. This will allow viewers to see the total eclipse without having to travel abroad, Yeh said.
The broadcast will be available at hichannel.hinet.net/event/2009tse/ and map.answerbox.net/2009tse, Yeh said.
The National Museum of Natural Science in central Taichung City will connect its telescope to a TV monitor to give visitors a closer view of the solar eclipse.
For those who wish to watch the phenomenon on their own, the museum is advising that they take proper precautions, such as wearing solar eclipse glasses to protect the eyes.
People should purchase proper eclipse plates at the optical stores since most sunglasses are unable to totally block the sunlight, the experts said.
When gazing the solar eclipse, viewers should not directly watch for more than one minute. It would be best to take a 30-second break after viewing for 10 seconds, they suggested.
Other agencies and organizations like Taipei Astronomical Museum (TAM), National Tsinghua University (NTHU) in northern Hsinchu, National Chenkung University in southern Tainan, and National Dong Hwa University in eastern Hualien will also provide direct broadcasts.
Their Web sites include www.tam.gov.tw/ and mms://broadcast.cc.nthu.edu.tw/live.
Other recommended live Web casts are available at sites like www.live-eclipse.org and www.atlaspost.com/2009tse.
Annular eclipse this morning in Tokyo @ ~7:32 am.
The sky was pretty cloudy which gave quite a dramatic effect I find ^_^
That's a ~3 megapixel crop from the sony nex-7's 24 megapixel.
Too bad my longest lens is 135mm equiv.
I modified the colors which were originally bluish though I am not sure which color an eclipse should be ahah.
And I should add it is in this kind of situations that the EVF shows its superiority: magnified zoomed in manual focus, live histogram, exact sensor exposure. I just had to find the good shutter speed/aperture range and the rest was easy.

We got up extra early to grab some shots of the Super Blood Moon Eclipse on January 31, 2018. Here the moon is about 80 covered just as the light of dawn was appearing on the opposite horizon.

The annular solar eclipse on May 20, 2012 from Hesperus Colorado. This is the moon passing in front of the sun.
I wasn't really prepared to view the eclipse, so I used two lenses from a pair of polarized sunglasses held at 90 degrees in order to make a filter.

First West Yorkshire 69579 (BT13 YVV) with HXConnect branding, a Wright Eclipse 2 bodied Volvo B7RLE that was new in August 2013, was photographed at Rochdale Interchange on 13 February 2024 when in was operating route 590 to Halifax via Hebden Bridge.
Got to see a couple of sunspots, but we did not get to see a great deal more of the eclipse at Saint Francis Wolf Sanctuary. Soon after this was taken, the heavens opened and the thunder and lightning were the only drama.
I don't think the wolves noticed the lack of daylight as the eclipse neared its peak - they just thought it was a really bad storm, which it was! 😮
Back to the Mexico City series soon....
Progress of the eclipse. The first six pictures are spaced roughly ten minutes apart. The last six cover a total period of about 7 minutes. The penultimate one shows the moment of annularity, and the last one is (fairly) close to center.

This set is a chronological photo journey of the 12th annual Eclipse Festival in Quebec, Canada. In all of my travels, I have found Eclipse to be one of the absolute best musical gatherings. All aspects of this event have been meticulously planned and thought out, from production to layout to musical selections and everything in between. The magic is in the air every trip up to Eclipse, this time with big upgrades with large woods camping and a large beautiful lake. With the photos, I wish to show the innovation and vibes of the festival as a small glimpse into the experience. As an event organizer, this is the type of event that you go to and become very motivated to continue creating. Big thank you to the entire Tech Safari crew and all who were involved.
