Wonderful photos, Art. I love seeing the solar flares. My daughter and her friends were northeast of you in Caribou and had great views too.I went out chasing clear skies for the April 8, 2024 Solar Eclipse in the United States. Totality was my goal with no clouds. I ended up driving up to Jackman Maine which was close to the middle of the path of totality and 16 miles from the Canadian border. I got my wish for no clouds and it was even pretty at 50 degrees F. It did cause the snow that was covering the grass at the lakeside park I set-up with eight friends who were also shooting the event with Olympus and Nikon Cameras. Four of us were shooting Canon Mirrorless. So here are a couple of shots captured in Maine. 1. Portrait composition of Corona at totality. 2. The diamond ring which happened just before totality ended. 3. A centered composition of eclipse at totality with a closer crop of Corona 4. This next image is a composite that has the first diamond ring when totality started, a Corona shot in the middle and the last diamond ring just before totality ended. Place this grouping of shots on a base image of the night sky filled with stars in my night sky folder. The last image is one of Baileys Beads which happened at the beginning of totality just after the first diamond ring. Baileys Beads can also be seen at the end of totality just before the diamond ring.
