RASC Hamilton Solar eclipse 3 Nov 2013

[Bob Prociuk]

	I was out on the Burlington Pier. Beautiful sun rise but the sun was
obscured by clouds for the first 10 minutes after sunrise. Did get a few
photos. Possibly one may show a small sliver of the moon over the sun but it
also could have been a cloud. The attached images have been reduced in size
for emailing. The first was shot through a welders glass while the next was
a direct shot through a telephoto lens.

Roger, David, Anybody else?
It was a BEAUTIFUL morning - and had some modest success. Lots of low cloud
on the horizon made it tricky.
