New Mexico Annular Eclipse

Taken May 10, 1995 in New Mexico using Celestron C5 with a tele-extender.  The objective was to be in the Zone of Broken Annularity, where the eclipse is neither a partial or an annular.  Here are Bailey’s Beads poking through the thin arc of annularity.  We watched the beads roll around the limb of the Sun.
