Sunday morning 2013 November 03, there was a solar eclipse, in progress as the sun rose that morning.<\/p>\n

In any event we were onsite (a nearby hill with a good view to the eastern horizon) at 06:12 EST and packed up at 07:11 EST<\/p>\n

First view of the Sun coming out of the clouds: 07:01:33 EST
\nFirst sighting of Moon on the Sun: 07:04:22 EST
\nLast sighting of Moon: 07:11:20 EST
\nTotal observed eclipse length: 06:58<\/p>\n

We recorded the event with a Sony Handycam equipped with a Baader solar filter but am running into processing issues with software to try and pull out still images and to edit the huge video files down to a usable size.<\/p>\n

Here are some still images captured from the video:
