Zusammenfassung:An excellent series of images of solar granulation was taken during the partial solar eclipse of 1994 May 10 at the Swedish Vacuum Solar Telescope at Roque de los Muchachos Observatory. Making use of the lunar limb profile, images at different heliocentric positions were corrected for instrumental and atmospheric effects. The centre-to-limb variation of the granulation contrast was calculated and compared with previous determinations.
