August 18: Planets in the Morning On the morning of August 18, I managed to get a few snapshots of the three outermost planets and the closest outermost planet arrayed across the morning sky. |

August 12: Solar Eclipse We observed the total solar eclipse from the Mediterranean coast of Spain. Laura won the prize for best picture taken at the eclipse, which I can reduce to the following equation: ( Laura + iPhone13 ) > ( Eric + D600 + 600mm lens + D5000 + 35mm lens + 2 solar filters + 2 Velbon tripods ) LOL. |
