I took 83 pictures of a bird like that today and didn't get one that good.

I bet there are going to be more people blinded because their curiosity overtakes their thinking regardless of the warnings. I was a teaching in inner city middle school. We had a solar eclipse while I was teaching science. I had the kids bring shoe boxes to class. We place pin holes in the back of the box, a hole in the top, and they were to point pi how side at the sun. They could view the eclipse on the inner back of the box. Suddenly a girl screamed out. She looked at the eclipse as just glancing to see what it really looked like. She was blind for several weeks to months. When her vision did return there a a place on the retina that was burned. Of course today, she is in her fifties. When she looks at person, item, etc. she can't see the total portion of what she is viewing. It is like having a hole in ones vision. As I stated, peoples curiosity overcomes their thinking. I read last night there were scams selling glasses that were imperfect.

How about a picture of people taking pictures of the crowds of people waiting around hoping the clouds will part before the eclipse is over?

Flower shot cropped alot. I used a bathroom makeup mirror to get sunlight on the flower because it was mostly in deep shade.

Already saw 2 FB eclipse posts and a Canon twitter post with eclipse photos with a pro using a 5DSR. So maybe I'll just avoid Photo Gallery and anything titled Eclipse for a month at UHH.
