Equipment Used:	Telescope Engineering Company TEC 160 APO Fluorite F/7 Refractor

Photo taken of the annular eclipse on May 20th, 2012. Image was taken at my home in Buckeye, AZ as the Sun was setting behind the White Tank Mountains about 2 miles to the west. You can clearly see a trail of sunspots as well as the outline of cactus, rocks and bushes on the mountain-top. I used a TEC160FL with Baader solar film. Photo was made with a Canon G11 digicam hand-held to the Hyperion 8-24mm eyepiece.
