Ok cool, after this tread started I started looking at it more and I now today think it looks pretty nice. I will not be buying one or any new truck but hey , if it works for the owner it is good.
Thank you for sharing this with us, I just came from in and out running around.
Be cool Beb.

I saw the Cyber Truck for the first time today. It looks a bit better in real life. It's a big truck


Does it have an open bed like other trucks have ?

I'm 74 and almost deaf, especially on a cell phone. There is a free app, InnoCaption, paid for by the Federal Government that can only be used by the hard of hearing. It provides an almost instantaneous transcript of the caller's discussion as well as your conversation which appears on the phone screen. It works well and has changed my life. Check it out in your phone's app store.


Thank you for posting this. My mother is all but Deaf.
Her hearing aids are off for repair and she cannot hear anything without them. It’s very frustrating but she has an iPhone that has an app on it that connects to her hearing aids that allows her to get here with.
This app you posted I looked into it and it looks like it could be a real blessing to my mother.
Again, thank you for sharing this. It looks like exactly what she needs.

I like the way it’s framed to show them the height of the trees in the background. A very good image. Thank you for sharing and if you have more, I would like to see them.

Thank you Bruce
The square thing is just a shield with a small hole punched in it just above the lens, this allowed me to get in the area of the sun and made it easier to find it on the LCD


Did you have filter in place ?

No apologies necessary, Bruce! No offense taken. Just gave me a giggle. Looking forward to your post.


I knew that, I was just being funny, humor is part of the service I provide.

We started our setup around 10A.M. the spent a good while figuring out how to track the sun!! once figured out we just sat around and tracking.About 12:45 we started shooting and tracking.
While I got some good images I am not real happy with them!!
But since this was my last chance (84 yrs old) for a total/ near total eclipse here are a few shots.
Camera:Nikon D810
Lens: Sigma 150-600 @600mm
Tripod:Gitzo GT5561, Wimberley WH200
Filter:Thousand Oaks Optical Solar White Light (580-630nm)
Settings: 1/20 sec, f6.3, iso 1000 ( should have been faster)
Live view (Oh oh it eats batteries) so I did not get the Pearl!! shot
Processed in PSCC to get the orange out!!
You can see the wispy clouds that caused the "flare"

WOW this is nice you kids.
This is real photography, capturing a part of life.
The filter on Sharons camera looks like the home made ones I made and used.
Your setup is interesting. What is the large square attached ? a solar filter ?
Either way Frank, I was holding off posting anything but you inspired me.
I think it is time to shock the hoggers.
Be same ya'll.

Wow, that's quite a set up, Bruce. Can't beat gaffers tape for filling in the gaps, ha ha. Looking forward to seeing your images when processed and oh, I'm a she, not a he.


Oooops ! dear lady, so sorry, my psychic abilities have diminished over time. Ok, I will be glad to post some for you.
I run them through Light-room but most are just fine as they are.
I will get some out later today or so after running around.
Thank you for the reply.

Thank you, Bruce. Not bad for an old bridge camera.


Ya damn right sir,
I used my bridge Panasonic Lumix FZ300 and got some really good ones too. I your case it is the human using the camera. Nicely done. I may post some of mine later one but for now there is enough to keep everyone busy.
Here is a shot of my bridge camera with the home made solar filter.
bruce

the filter had not been fully pushed on, I had to pull it out some to retrack the lens.

No travel needed! Just set up on the front porch under shady cover and take the shots. Of course, for us in Reno, NV we didn't get a total eclipse but the partial was quite spectacular due to the sunspots, especially AR3628 which remained visible through all the steps of the moon transiting the sun. While two cameras were used, the best images came from an old battered FujiPix HS50 EXR.


Excellent capture.

Nope - San Antonio was socked in with a solid overcast - pretty much all day.
Instead of the eclipse, we were gifted with a new grandchild at 0630 :) :)

Congratulations and God’s blessings to you and the grandchild’s family. This, indeed will be a very notable and memorable day on the child’s birthday.

Now that’s some thing you don’t see every day even in Florida. Maybe he just wanted a beer or a sandwich and looking for a cool place to hang out.

I got 8 pair on Amzn for $9.99, shipped to my door.
But clouds are headed our way. So if you're not at FL 350, you'll probably just get dark.
Sux to be the 100K headed for Kerrville


Here in the Dallas Fort Worth area the clouds cleared up and it was mostly a clear sky during the eclipse event, which is very very nice then afterwords clouds started moving in a little bit so we had a great experience and I got a whole bunch of pictures. I hope it was clear for you enough to enjoy the event.

Good for you - sounds like a great plan - I would have loved a curriculum like that in high school. I got my license in ’76 in a Cessna 150 - type rated in the 172, 305, Piper Warrior, Archer, Beechcraft Bonanza, Navy T28 Trojan and finally the Twin Comanche PA-30. I love flying and will always remember this poster given to me when I got my license


This is absolutely true. I remember that image of the plane in the tree. The words are absolutely correct.
I do got my license in 1976 in a Cessna 150.
