User / Michael Seeley / Total Solar Eclipse (August 21, 2017) from Sumter, SC
Michael Seeley / 3,877 items
The symmetry (or lack thereof) in this #TotalEclipse2017 composite messes with my (selective) OCD, but as I previously mentioned, clouds and rain prevented the evenly-spaced time-lapse I had planned, so this is the closest I can come up with (at least on the little sleep I'm operating on) at the moment.

These were all taken through the 8" Celestron telescope (with a focal reducer), and it shows on the left roughly 14 minutes of the Sun before totality (center) and then 18 minutes of the Sun after totality on the right. The telescope was fairly faithful in its tracking of the Sun, and the camera was driven by Jared Haworth's computer.

Photos were taken at Shaw Air Force Base with the great help of the F-16 Viper Demo Team.
