Maximum Eclipse was 80% in metro Detroit, not enough to go dark but enough to make the shadows echo.
(I had eclipse spectacles to see the moon's shadow on the sun, but don't have suitable equipment to photograph the eclipse.)
Having made the TrentBarton Eclipse, choices for liveries were pretty much either Trent ones the Eclipses have worn (of which there are many), or one that was applied to a different sort of bus but wouldn’t look out of place on an Eclipse, like the Sixes. But I wasn’t keen on just doing a different Trent Barton livery, and eventually had the idea of painting one in a livery based off Notts & Derby’s Plaxton Centros. So here it is!
Reasonably this *could* happen in real life if Trent ever start cascading Eclipses down to N&D – after all Kinch have got some in their livery – in some future scenario where TrentBarton aren’t constantly short of buses and don’t need every serviceable Eclipse they can lay their hands on. I think a few of these would go nicely alongside the existing Centros (or even to ultimately replace them), and especially well alongside the ex-Lothian B9TLs. The Eclipses would essentially be mini versions of N&D’s Geminis!
In fact, thinking about how Notts & Derby have those B7RLE Centros; the ex Skylink ones plus the others (new to Felix, were they?), how come none of those have been loaned back to TrentBarton during their bus shortages? It’s happened before because I distinctly remember blue and white ones going round with the “sorry about my appearance” lettering about 2011 time. I don’t even know why I’m asking really, because doing that would require Wellglade to use logic.
In this drawing it shows 741 having become part of the Notts & Derby fleet, in the ‘arrows’ livery, being employed on the former TrentBarton Royal Derby route. I just picked the fleet number and route at random.
The lunar eclipse on 3rd March 2007, as seen from Leicester.
Music is Waltz into the Moon by Tryad.
Lots of stars can be seen in the photograph. At the bottom, we have Alphard (mag 2.0) going into the trees on the bottom right and Spica (mag 1.0) to the bottom left.
Above the Moon is Leo, and the stars Regulus (1.4), Denebola (2.1) and Algieba (2.2) are all visible.
The brightest 'star', half-way between the Moon and the top of the video, is actually the planet Saturn.
The video was produced by stacking lots of individual images in various interesting way, with the help of IDL.
I was actually at the Physics Ball in Leicester town centre when my camera was automatically taking these photographs!

Here is my eclipse sequence, from Hamilton, New Zealand, occurring 1am local time. Things I learned; that the moon scoots along pretty fast! To get the shadowed blood version, I was getting very blurry shots until I realised it was moon movement, not shaky tripod, and cranked the ISO up! Not super happy with sharpness on any of the shots, but OK at this size. Sunlit moon shot on EOS-M with 500mm Reflex mirror lens, (1/100 f8 ISO100), blood moon on 7D at 400mm (70-200 with 2x converter, 1 sec f2.8 (really f4 at sensor) ISO800 all shot from inside my back door!
These are the workshop attendees that were present when we took the picture on the second day. We're sorry we missed a few others.
Eclipse shirts, caps, and other commemorative items were popular with visitors.

This picture was taken during the summer of 1999, from northern France.
From my viewpoint, the totality lasted 2mns and 2s.
Crowds of people turned up at Glasgow University to watch the solar eclipse this morning. It didn't look like we were going to see it, but just at the perfect moment, the clouds broke and this astronomical event wowed the crowds. I wanted to get some shots of people wearing special 'eclipse glasses'. I spotted this family (who were about the only ones) with glasses.
during the lunar eclipse. the moon was to have a red glow. to the naked eye it had a orangey red tinge. couldn't get a good picture of the colour.
on this one i cheated and changed the colour in the photo editing program.......well.....i wanted red!
when i hear the word eclipse i think of the following song by nick cave.
the sorrowful wife
I married my wife on the day of the eclipse
Our friends awarded her courage with gifts
Now as the nights grow longer and the season shifts
I look to my sorrowful wife
Who is quietly tending her flowers
Who is quietly tending her .....
The water is high on the beckoning river
I made her a promise I could not deliver
And the cry of the birds sends a terrible shiver
Through me and my sorrowful wife
Who is shifting the furniture around
Who is shifting the furniture around
Now we sit beneath the knotted Yew
And the bluebells bob around our shoes
The task of remembering the telltale clues
Goes to my lovely, my sorrowful wife
Who is counting the days on her fingers
Who is counting the days on her .....
Come on and help me babe
Come on now
Help me babe
I was blind
The grass here grows long and high
Twists right up to the sky
White clouds roll on by
Come on now and help me babe
I was blind
I was a fool babe
I was blind
Come on now
A loose wind last night blew down
Black trees bent to the ground
Their blossoms made such a sound
That I could not hear myself think babe
Come on now
And help me babe
Help me now
I was blind
I was a fool
16 shot composite of the Eclipse sequence taken with a 70-300mm @300mm with a Baader Solar filter attached, which gives a bluish tint, the last image is orange due to the Sun being so close to setting even the filter's hue couldn't overpower "Golden Hour" light.
