Eclipse from Egypt

Hey folks,

Here's a copy of my eclipse shot from Egypt. While traveling around after the eclipse, I quickly composited 5 different exposures and followed the processing tips in the May Sky and Telescope. I took about 75-80 shots during totality and need to sit at home and sift through them (raw files) for the best of the best.

My camera was a Canon 20D hooked up to an 80mm Williams Optics Zenithstar mounted on a motorized equatorial mount.

Thanks for looking

Jim K.

Wow! 8O

A gorgeous level of detail. Nicely processed...not overdone.

Looking forward to seeing more from you!
