Partial Solar Eclipse of October 2014 in video

Description:

On October 23, 2014, I was with a group of amateur astronomers in a villa we had rented in the middle of the New Mexico desert for a week. As luck would have it, a partial solar eclipse was occurring during this week and from our location, 30% of the Sun’s surface (42% of the diameter) was covered at the maximum. The 11-year solar activity cycle was also at its peak in 2014 which gave us sunspots of impressive size. Here is the video I took on this occasion.
