2012 Total solar eclipse at Atherton near Cairns during totality – Click for a larger version!
My Astro-Physicist wife and I have had a wonderful morning enjoying and photographing the Cairns total eclipse for 2012! We decided over 6 months ago to stay near Atherton about an hour’s drive from Cairns for the Eclipse.
Not only was accommodation scarce, but we felt that there was a higher chance of better weather up high on the tablelands, than down near the coast.
We were not disappointed!
