Equipment

Nikon D200 Reflex-Nikkor 1:8 f=500mm

Description

The Sun was hidden behind a thick band of cloud most of the time between C2 and C3, but Ben Seiler '13 of Williams College was able to capture some good images of the annulus. The images were quickly put together in a montage by Muzhou Lu '13. Special thanks to Professor Jay M. Pasachoff for leading a class of eight students to observe this special event. The other students are Shubhanga Pandey, Allen Davis, Ben Oliva, Markus Gonzales, Eric Edelman, and Ryan Barley.
