 The 1998 Total Solar Eclipse,Guadeloupe, F.W.I. |
 |
|
On February 26th, 1998, the Sun eclipsed in the Caribbean, and Rebecca and I were on the island of Guadeloupe to see it. We watched it from the windward side of the island with Craig DeForest and a large group of his physicist buddies who were in town for a solar physics conference (what a coincidence!). Here are the images I captured of it, with a few of the snaps from the day...... (You can also look at photos of the rest of the trip).

Look at the movie that I created using all the eclipse images, shot at an interval of 10 minutes over the course of 2½ hours. |
 And so it begins...... |
 Over half way there now! |
 A cool lens flare effect. |
