Using your Eyes and your Camera to get the most out of Solar Eclipses

On August 21, 2017, millions of people across the United States will see nature's most wondrous spectacle - a total eclipse of the Sun. It is a scene of unimaginable beauty; the Moon completely blocks the Sun, daytime becomes a deep twilight, and the Sun’s corona shimmers in the darkened sky. However, totality only lasts for two minutes. During that time a lot happens. Rob will use his own experience (both good and bad) to help the participants get the most out of the eclipse experience, whether you are going to just view it with your eyes or bring your portable observatory. For those who cannot attend, the material Rob will be presenting (and more) are in the YouTube movies linked from his website robhawley.net
