Excellent shots Craig. I see your view also didn't completely eclipse as well.
I had read that this might happen.
Glad you shot Saturn as well.

Thank you Jim, It was going to be a 5 min total but it didn't happen.
I didn't notice Saturn until the sun was coming up so lots of light pollution with the Moon and Sun.
