Some are mine, some are Laura's. Now if we can only get that Erin person to upload hers...

And now time to get clever.
Both of these are composite images created in Photoshop. The first is using images that I took and the second one are from Laura's photos. Notice the difference in color cast because we had different filters, and notice the difference in exposure of the totality phase. Hers is a shorter exposure and crisper, while mine was a longer exposure that is softer but shows more of the corona.

Another first for me was trying to create an animated GIF. I had five pictures at the end of totality that I combined using Photoshop and Premiere.
A more ambitious stop motion this time. Laura had about 50 images taken during the totality that I stacked and registered in Photoshop before using Premiere to combine them into a short video clip.
And finally a video from Alex's friend (and our new friend) Ray Raichura who took some video during the eclipse and got some audience reactions.
