Full series from Burlington VT. Not processed much yet.
We had slight haze/cirrus but we were lucky with weather. Corona had shorter streamers than in 1998 and 1991 (see parallel galleries). But loop prominence, diamond ring, and chromosphere at C3 were stunning visually and show up well here.
Equipment: Takahashi FS102 (800 F/8) with Canon 5DIII at ISO 100 and various exposures. Tracked on Takahashi EM200 mount and camera controlled by SETnC software. Times and exposures of images reported in filenames.
For me, this was the second eclipse in Saros 139, where similar eclipses are repeated every 18y 11.3d. In 1970 I observed its precursor in Curacao and took pictures with an Agfa Clack box camera... :)
