The eclipse April 8th 2024- just South of Montreal. The orange images were taken using an improvised eclipse filter, the centre image, the eclipse at totality, was taken without the filter. The eclipse began at 14.14 (top) and ended at 16.36 p.m, with the total eclipses lasting only two minutes. The partial eclipses are lined up in order (beginning the top), but other than that there is no accuracy in terms of timing or position.

The April 8th, 2024, eclipse seen from near Montreal. An interesting experience. It got darker slowly, and cold and the wind picked up. Then the sun disappeared completely and suddenly leaving only a black hole where the sun had been and the disk of the corona. Everything gets dark, even the streetlights turn on, and rather eerie. It's very impressive. The eclipse began at 14.14 in the afternoon, but totality, when the sun was covered entirely and we could look directly at the eclipse with the naked eye, lasted only two minutes, from 15.26 and 40 seconds to 15.28 and 42 seconds.

The coming storm.

This is a pumpkin spider against the sun. (Sometimes it is also called a shamrock spider).
