| Date/Location | 21 August 2017 (11:46am) - Las Cruces, NM Info: http://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/in/usa/las-cruces Second image Published by ABC News affiliate in El Paso, Texas (screenshot). All images taken with Canon T3i using a solar filter. I have been in others (including total and annular), before. For this one, even at 0.70 magnitude for Las Cruces, the dimming was obvious. This is my first try at solar imaging. |
