Quick eclipse report from Villasinta

Saw a beautiful total eclipse in Villasinta, north of León, yesterday evening, in clear but slightly hazy skies.

Excellent Baily’s Beads at C2, with a spectacular prominence at 9 o’clock, easily visible to the naked eye:

Corona appeared slightly yellow, presumably due to lower sun altitude (~9.7 deg) :

Then C3:

The Sun set behind the far hills shortly before C4

The crowd had only one other family with camera gear, otherwise it was only locals from the village itself. A big change from 2024’s tour-group-in-a-field experience!
