Eclipse Totality from White House Tennessee (Page 3): Great image- I watched it in Oregon with clear skies. Much more beautiful than I thought it would be.

Hi Folks, I just got home from a day long adventure with the Nashville Photography Club. I photographed everything from frogs, flower and turtles to flowers and food. Oh, and I did get a few eclipse shots. Here's my first processed photo taken at totality. That was amazing, the light went from like a heavy overcast day to night in just seconds and we lost 6 degrees of temperature.

Beautiful James. I got one from my yard in Hendersonville, TN. It is unedited. I changed the file from RAW to jpeg in NX-d and cropped it in Windows 10 image viewer.

I only had a partial here (Strasburg, VA), but it was enough to lower the temp 8 degrees. Had a nice long strangely lit twilight. Then the heat popped back hotter than ever.

Looks like you caught a Solar Burst at 3:00 on the dial !

Thanks Everyone for the great comments. Sorry for the delay in replying...I was so tired from sitting in the heat and traffic for hours that I went to bed pretty early last night. Feeling a bit more refreshed today. Some have asked for details so I'll attach the EXIF data. Looking back, I'd wished I'd exposed the image a wee bit darker. Some of the flairs are slightly blown out. They were bright but I did record some reddish tint to them. In my moment of excitement, I wasn't thinking except to get some shots. I was relying on the feed back from the sensor through the electronic eyefinder. The shot looked good at the time but it was a very small image that I was seeing. I cropped this one quite a bit. I tried using a tripod but found it too difficult to read the camera settings with it pointed at the sun, so took it off so I could look through the viewfinder and hand held all of my eclipse shots. Anyway...thanks again folks, glad you enjoyed viewing the image.
