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!

 VENUS and the CRESCENT MOON
December 26, 2011

Venus and the waxing Crescent Moon were very prominent in the south-western sky just after sunset. Most of the photographs were taken at the Fire Island National Seashore. Moon set was around 8pm with Venus following soon after.
