UMBRAPHILEUMBRAPHILE is a FreeWare Macintosh application designed for solar eclipse aficionados. UMBRAPHILE serves two purposes. First, you can use UMBRAPHILE to determine the centerline and {;}local circumstances of total and annular solar eclipses, local circumstances for partial solar eclipses, or for the partial phases of total and annular eclipses. Second, UMBRAPHILE will allow you to use a {;}MacOS computer to control a camera through a VERY simple electro-mechanical interface and have it automatically take photographs of a solar eclipse for you. No more wasting those precious seconds {;}of totality fumbling around with camera equipment. Sit back, relax, and let UMBRAPHILE do the work for you.
