Took a heap of pics when I travelled to Lyndhurst (600km from Adelaide) I reckon this just captured the moment... Used a Fuji Finepix 6800 Digital camera. Just got the "Diamond Ring"... CSIRO Magazine "Helix" printed it last year!

Very nice, indeed. I don't think I've ever seen a photograph of the "diamond ring" quite like yours before.

My diamond ring shot from the 1998 Caribbean solar eclipse can be seen at http://dvaa.org/php/mpix.php?p=Dave_Mitsky&i=Solar2
