About this image

I set the S50 for a 30second interval. I wish i had turned down to 5secs now to make a better movie. But hey ho. the event was a visual treat whatever.

This scope is great for solar viewing, but i have noticed before the auto exposure settings struggle with partial eclipse. But there was no way i was going to spend ages glued to a mobile screen when I had decent solar scope to hand for viewing.

So this GIF is just a nice sequence for the record
