One of the best partial eclipses I have ever witnessed.  The skies here on the island of Cephallonia
Greece were crystal clear and the weather was mild with a nice comfortable temperature.
The wind that was very strong during the previous days stopped just the right time in order
to photograph the eclipse.  Perfect conditions to stay up all night!

The equipment that was used for the photography was a SONY DSLR-A700 camera on
the Takahashi TSA-102S telescope on the Takahashi EM200-Temma2 equatorial mount.

In analogy with the 28 days lunar cycle, I have made a nice 28sec video of the event.
Don't forget to check it out!

Clear Skies!
