October Annular Eclipse

I made a short video of my eclipse photos from my recent trip.

Rough first approximation. The astro-tracker worked fairly well, but
there's a little bit of drift.

I'm working on a better version that has all the sun images aligned &
I'll crop out most of the negative space ... but if I wait until I get
it right I'll probably never get it finished.

This is GOOD ENOUGH for now. I'll replace it IF/WHEN I figure out how to
do it better.

Cool! I eagerly await the final version.
