My favorite shot from the solar eclipse over Nashville, TN.

I just had surgery, so I didn't do a lot to prepare for the eclipse. I recently sold my D700 and sigma 70-200 to fund the purchase of the D610, so the longest lens I had was my sigma 105 2.8 macro. I used that on the d610, this one and the "ring of fire" shot were both hand held, without any filters. I did have to do some heavy cropping due to the 105mm focal range, but of the few I took, I got some I am happy with. I only did some minor tweaks in ACR (of the few I made adjustments to). I don't really plan on printing any large format prints, so these will serve well for the family memory books.
