Thread: Eclipse photos

    Eclipse photos

    Anyone else want to add a pic to this thread as the eclipse travels east? By the way, I chose a "Moon Watch" for the day. While I have to say I have a bit of a head ache, it was pretty fun!

    I ordered glasses from the uk in plenty time but they waited 7 days to ship and caused me to have to cancel my order. And now I have no glasses.

    I was just working on shrinking a few. Here's a couple from our 75% location, using leaf shadows for a pinhole camera.

    Too many watches, not enough wrists.

    From the street in front of our house. They said to use the glasses to photograph through, but that was not working. Best was when shot through a thin cloud.

    We were 79%.

    Cloud cover worked best for me, too. Luckily, there was no shortage of cloud cover here today.

    I was in the path of totality but didnt think any of the photos were gonna be any good so I put down the camera to just enjoy the show.

    This pic is from about halfway through.
