JUNE 11, 2002 ECLIPSE

 

   
 

The eclipsed sun rises over Leyte Island as seen in Cebu City.  5:23am 1/500sec exposure

 

 A partial solar eclipse was seen here in Cebu City.  All photos were taken using my Astrophysics AP130 EDF working at f/12 with the use of an AP 2X convertible barlow.  I used a Kodak Pro Image 100 film and a Baader Planetarium Photographic Density Solar Filter Material mounted on my homemade fiberlgass mount.  The eclipse started at 5:02am local time which is before sunrise.  Sunrise here in Cebu occurred at 5:22am.  Maximum eclipse was at 6:00:55 local time with the moon covering 79.8% of the sun.  The eclipse ended at 7:04am local time.
