Bonus shot of the totality projected on a kid’s hand through the sighting scope:

    Awesome photos! Thanks for sharing and glad the weather cooperated.

    I’m looking forward to the one in April, going to set aside some time to see it.

    That’s a great shot, I wasn’t even aware it was happening today. Where was this located?

    Is it still called totality if it’s an annular eclipse?

      No, I believe it’s called an annularity.

    Fantastic. I went down to Nevada to get a spot in a 100% area. Nice and clear view right until 100% and then the clouds blocked it out for a few minutes. So awesome.

    did you have to add a filter or was that part of the kit?

      Yep, I bought the telescope for $70 and separate solar filter for $20. Can dm links if you’re interested.

      I am curious, also. Very cool! I used a welding hood with my phone and it added a green tint. Not as cool.
