Guys, the eclipse was seen here in Cairo from start till end.
It started at the very early hours on the 21st Feb. 2008.
The Partial Eclipse started 3:43am and ended 7:09am
The Total Eclipse started 5:01 and ended 5:51
My observation location was (30-07-N) (31-21-E) and the temperature was almost freezing. I spent like 5 hours in total freeze, but it was fun, though.
I was using my Sony Digital Camera with my Reflector Meade telescope 4.5''. I had a second digital camera that was supposed to take extremely nice shots, but i couldn't find the power charger and it went off before starting.... very bad.
The eclipse coverage was as below:
For those who still need to know how the eclipse happens, take a look here:
Now for the fun part, find below the Copy Righted images i took. they aren't so much but nice.
