Skies were clear from first to last contact during the total solar eclipse in Little Rock. This image of solar prominences and the silhouette of the lunar southern highlands was made with a Questar 1280/89mm, f/15, telescope and Sony a7iii. 4 1/30 sec exposures stacked for noise reduction.

Image of the Solar Corona as an 18 image HDR composite with exposures ranging from 0.8 sec to 1/320 sec taken with a Sony a6300 crop sensor mirrorless camera and a William Optics RedCat 250/51mm f/5 Petzval refractor. With crop the quivalent focal length is about 490mm.
High thin clouds during totality made it difficult to bring out the corona, but radial unsharp masking worked well. All stacking and other processing done in PS. Nice to have a couple of dim stars from Pisces in the shot.

Here's a shot right at the end of totality, just as the sun started to emerge from behind the moon.

From Duncan:
I just had my 11th annual study visit in the Morris Animal Foundation Golden Retriever Lifetime Study!
I am one of #3000Strong "hero" Goldens who are helping to identify nutritional, environmental, lifestyle and genetic risk factors for cancer and other diseases in dogs.
My awesome vet Dr. Jack & his vet tech Natalie took samples of EVERYTHING!
P.S. I was a very good boy and didn't even mind delaying my breakfast. Or the silly antlers. 🐾
Thanks to Miller Animal Hospital and BOTH Dr. Jack Millers for their continued support of this vital study. I am proud to be part of the #GRLS and help all future dogs.
