Wonderful pictures, Pete. Thank you for posting.

Ditto from here - loved no.6 especially

I agree about no. 6, an excellent shot by Pete taken at the best time,
for me. I had a good view from here of the last part of totality and
the best bit was the 5 minutes around the end of totality, a wonderful
sight as the sun started once again to illuminate the moon's edges.

It's very difficult to portray a high contrast scene like that
photographically - although the human eye can see it easily (well mine
did!). Pete's effort in number 6 is as good, in such circumstances, as
you are ever likely to see. Simply superb.
