Christmas eclipse sequence.

Clock driven prime focus photos taken with a Minolta SR-T101 camera mounted on a 203.2mm Meade LX200 Schmidt-Cassegrain Telescope f/6.3 with an Orion full aperture solar filterusing Kodak Royal Gold 100 ASA film with an exposure of 1/1000 second on Christmas day, December 25, 2000 from 11:06 am thru 2:30 pm at approximately 5 minute intervals from New York City, NY. The last 4 frames are after the eclipse was over at about 3 pm.

The two exposures 6A and 7A were dimmed by the sun passing partially behind the skylight on my roof.
