Part 1     Part 2    


Brazos Valley Astronomy Club members were spread out across two states to witness and photograph the total solar eclipse of 2024. Each member took images from the first contact, through totality, to the very last contact, all using different equipment, but the results were equally stunning for everyone.

Those who recorded the event had the opportunity to share up to ten images at one of the monthly meetings, and two of those images for each individual are shown below.

The images are spread out on two pages in this newsletter, so be sure to take a look at both pages.
