Full Eclipse Composite
Horizontal Composite with Diamond Rings - Black & White
Description
This is a full composite of the entire eclipse sequence, with C1-C2 on the left and C3-C4 on the right. On top of the zoomed out corona image, I overlaid 8 partial phase images (4 on each side), one at 90% of eclipse magnitude, and then at 70%, 40%, and 10%. The diamond rings for C2 and C3 were also included. The resulting image was then converted to B&W in Photoshop. The sun was shot using Baader AstroSolar Film in white light. However, I slightly adjusted the color to make the sun appear more orange, as we are accustomed to seing in photographs. The sun appears hazy about midway through C3-C4 because a thin cirrus cloud layer moved in front of it during that time, making shooting conditions more hazy.
