Partial Solar Eclipse

Partial Solar Eclipse as seen from Fire Island, New York 

On the morning of Sunday, November 3, 2013, the eastern United States was privileged to be in the path of a partial Solar Eclipse at Sunrise. Many had the misfortune of having clouds obscure their viewing of the eclipse, as did I, but there was enough of a break in the clouds for me to capture some awesome images of this rare event from Fire Island, New York!

(*Caution: NEVER look directly at the sun without an approved SOLAR FILTER as this could result in permanent eye damage or blindness! You should contact your local Observatory or Astronomy Club for more information!)
