Full Eclipse

[KlyvQ]

So did anyone manage to get descent pics of the eclipse.....? Maaan my cheap camera proved it's value today.
 - none the less, very cool to have witnessed.

Took some photos not sure how great they are, had to use long exposure to get the color right though.

Damn... this is very cool.
- Your camera takes descent pics - mine are/were an absolute joke....

That is actually the raw size of the photo.  Just cropped out the blank.  If I had a decent camera it would have been nicer

I observed another full eclipse here at home about an hour ago. The moll put too much water in the Philips iron and everything just went black. Much better than last night's spectacle. A couple of us old fogeys stood outside our club's premises in pouring rain and just got our beer full of water

I got some , but I am not super happy, the lens and camera were too heavy for the angle at which I had the tri-pod's ball head.
I will share in any case.
The first one was from the 14 th. when the kids had the date wrong LOL

Very blurry, long exposure and as I realised afterwards, the ballhead shifted
