… well sort of. ;-) Beside the total solar eclipse on 14 Nov 2012 in Queensland there was a lot more to see during our 2012 trip to Australia. The new album Australia 2012 showcases pictures from Sydney, the Blue Mountains and of course Queensland. Some of the Eclipse and Australia images were taken by Susanne.
… darf natürlich auch nicht fehlen. ;-) Neben den Bilder rund um die Sofi am 14. November 2012 in Queensland gibt’s den Rest der Bilder in einem neuen Fotoalbum Australia 2012. Einige der Sofi- und Australienbilder stammen von Susanne.

Some are relaxing while other are busy in the engine room. ;-) Thanks to Silvia Otto for providing this great shot of Susanne, Rainer and yours truly.

A complete run-down of the Queensland total solar eclipse, from when the sun rose above the low cloud layer on the horizon until 4th contact.

More impressive images from the 13/14 Nov total solar eclipse can be found on the NASA Astronomy Photo of the Day website (APOD). No, this chromosphere image was NOT an APOD. ;-)

Equipment, what worked, what didn’t? Well, everything did, so I’m quite happy with the setup used to photograph the 13/14 Nov 2012 total solar eclipse:
When using EclipseOrchestrator, it is extremely important to test the control scripts thoroughly, over and over again. Camera cycle times and overall timing are tricky, especially when using mirror lockup and a serial port shutter cable. BTW: Fred’s support for his program is superb!
The Astrotrac’s tracking time is approx. 2 hours, not completely a perfect match for a total solar eclipse. And you definitely need something like the wedge and GIRO-mini, a normal “photo” ball head just won’t do it. For this eclipse the GIRO-mini would probably have worked without counterweights, as the sun was just 12 degrees above the horizon at totality and thus the GIRO-mini in a more or less upright position.

Finally! After the clouded out experience in 2009 we were able to watch the total solar eclipse of 13/14 Nov 2012 at the Palmer River Roadhouse in Queensland, Australia.
See some images from eclipse day in the new album Eclipse 2012.

Some impression from Robodonien, most spectacular being Lyle Rowell’s Lrry-1.
