There is a ap for iPhone that measures light. I have it on mine.


Does it show a calculator keypad when it takes a reading?

Eclipse 2017
Good work. Interesting reflections in the clouds. Pin Hole effect from the water vapor?

New Moon on Monday
A new moon happens about once a month (duh!!!). A solar eclipse in your back yard - once in a lifetime! BTW... It is no coincidence that they are occurring on the same day. The ONLY time you can have solar eclipse is during a new moon. The sun has to be fully lighting the back side of the moon (i.e. new moon) for the moon to cast a shadow on the Earth.

I love using my neighbors old barn for taking pictures. There's a field between my house & the barn that changes with the seasons. It's my favorite place to take pictures of my grandchildren.


Nice shot. Looks like a great place for eclipse pictures, too! You're in the totality zone. Why don't you invite us all to come camp out?

Solar Eclipse - Important Information
russchristopher wrote:
I have been practicing photographing the sun with my DSLR and solar filter. The smaller image is using a 40mm lens and the larger with a 150mm telephoto. Even looking at the images is annoying to the eyes. I will use the filter to take photographs of the progress of the eclipse. Since I am in the path of totality, I will be able to remove the solar filter and take pics as if it were of the moon at night. If you are not in the path of complete totality, there could be a problem if you try to remove the filter at any point in the process. Also, I have taken some pictures of the sun behind thin clouds. The solar filter + clouds blocks any image from reaching my camera, so I have removed the solar filter and added a UV with good results. Just FYI.

What settings are you using? I took some the other day with a solar filter that I haven't downloaded to my computer yet. I was using ISO 200, F8 & 1/250 sec.

Solar Eclipse - Important Information
Amazon swept with a broad brush! I bought solar glasses and filters (through Amazon) from a company called ICSTARS, and then got the Amazon refund e-mail. I subsequently got a follow-up from the company itself. Amazon was wrong in their case, but I never got another correction follow-up from Amazon. They are just covering their butt from lawsuits. They should have done more research before their knee-jerk reaction scarring everybody. I'm not saying they are wrong in every case, but they were in mine. Here's a link to the official American Astronomical Society (AAS) site where you (or Amazon) can check:
