Total Solar Eclipse in Buffalo, NY on April 8, 2024
"Attached are some photos taken during the Solar Eclipse. All are from a location at the north end of Grand Island.
In one of the photos, there is a prominent red dot at the base of the moon. This is a solar prominence usually a rare site during an eclipse. The prominence appears red because the emitting plasma originates deep in the sun's chromosphere." ~ Paul Leuchner
