Alright, this is for sharing of your observation experience. Or, if you are arranging gatherings, star-gazing expeditions or just want some company to go observing together, you can shout it out here.
There are the 3 of us making a trip to Bagan, Myanmar for the annular eclilpse on Jan. 15. Weather was cooperating. The site we picked for the eclipse was awesome, with spectacular views and lovely people around.
Here come the people shots during the event. It was such a nice experience meeting other eclipse chasers from all over the world and the local eclipse watchers. The event was just like a sidewalk astro party~
wow! very nice pictures and composites....the star trail reflections is my fav, plus the eclipse composite together with temple silhouettes... enjoyed it much! thanks for posting.

For my own images, I determined the duration is 7m 41s. It is about 5 minutes less. I would like to know yours result...
Hey bro,
I use the following two pics for second and third contact, ending up with a duration of 7m30s. I'm not sure how to define second contact for this scenerio though, due to the effect of the big crater.
