Nicely shot.
I hope you spent some time just watching as well.
This was my first total eclipse and I was in Madras Oregon. I spent my time about 50/50.

Nice!
You actually got some nice detail of the Moon during the Eclipse.

You must have hit some horrific traffic to be this late getting back

Very nicely done sir.
I wish I could have gotten the totality. But I was at 92.5%.

I'll have to settle for the 60% I'll get in Santa Maria CA.
