Total eclipse (2017) as seen in SW Virginia. This was about 10 minutes before the peak. Taken afocal through an Orion refractor with Mylar filter.
This image is a composite of the phases of the eclipse right around totality. This was shot at 200mm on a stationary camera. I selected 11 images from the more than 600 shot with this camera. I aligned this camera the previous morning at the same time as totality so that the sun would be near the center of the frame when eclipsed on Monday

The symmetry (or lack thereof) in this #TotalEclipse2017 composite messes with my (selective) OCD, but as I previously mentioned, clouds and rain prevented the evenly-spaced time-lapse I had planned, so this is the closest I can come up with (at least on the little sleep I'm operating on) at the moment.
These were all taken through the 8" Celestron telescope (with a focal reducer), and it shows on the left roughly 14 minutes of the Sun before totality (center) and then 18 minutes of the Sun after totality on the right. The telescope was fairly faithful in its tracking of the Sun, and the camera was driven by Jared Haworth's computer.
Photos were taken at Shaw Air Force Base with the great help of the F-16 Viper Demo Team.
The solar eclipse from August - viewed from Boston, it was a partial eclipse. I watched it from a park in Somerville and totally lucked out with just the right amount of cloud cover that I could point my camera directly at the sun without a filter and capture the eclipse through these amazing clouds. As for the colors, I definitely punched them up in Lightroom, but they appeared out of the raw file - I didn’t choose the blue and yellow, I just emphasized them more with my post-processing. I posted some other shots right after the eclipse but in retrospect this one might be my favorite - its currently my phone wallpaper. Shot with Sony a6000 and 55-210mm lens.
Dave: Eva, what do you think of the eclipse?
Eva: Not much. When it comes down to it it really just is a the moon's path crossing in front of the sun temporarily shadowing portions of the earth from the sun.
Dave: Any other thoughts?
Eva: Well, it would be better with eclipse cookies.
Dave: Eclipse cookies?
Eva: Yup. Eclipse cookies. You know, a big circle shaped cookie that I can take nibbles out of to match the progressive crescent shaped shadow of the sun.
Dave: That is a pretty cool idea. But what do you do after the maximum point of the eclipse when the silhouette of the sun is getting bigger again?
Eva: Simple. Eat more cookies. When in doubt, eat more cookies.

Eva and the shadow of the eclipse. We were at the lake for perfect sunny weather on the day of the eclipse. Being this far north it was only a partial eclipse, which the humans found very cool. The dogs were a little less impressed.
Stacked, Multiple Exposure of the 2017 Eclipse. Viewed from the Air Force Memorial in Washington DC.
I have been in Southern Utah all week, and I raced back up to northern Utah to get the eclipse. Since I KNEW I would not get the full eclipse, I decided to get a foreground I liked and composite it all.
ISO 64 15mm f/16 1/200sec D810/D500
While most people were dazzled by the eclipse, Eva was more dappled by it.
A bit of a different take on an eclipse photo. When reading about how to safely view an eclipse I came across an article that recommended weaving your fingers together then allowing a small amount of light through so that each of your finger web space intersections could act like an individual pinhole projector, similar to how dappled light coming through a tree is made up of individual circles because of many tiny pin-hole like interfaces between the leaves. Then during the eclipse I notices the very cool pattern to the dappled light which changed with how much or little of the sun was shaded. Perfect time for a portrait with Eva.
Although there is catch-light in her left eye, I can assure you that she was not looking directly into the sun, as I had a handful of cheerios beside my lens to keep her attention on me.

A seies of images taking during the "Great American Eclipse" of August 21st 2017. Our location was Greenville, South Carolina. Equipment used: Canon 7D with Tamron 150-600mm lens and solar filter sheet.
Fotodiox was in Nashville, Tennessee on Monday to capture the eclipse! Here's a shot captured with a vintage Danubia 500mm f8 telephoto lens mounted on a Sony A7R II with a Fotodiox T2 to Sony E-mount lens adapter.
Might as well post this tonight...while its still August 21st for me. Well, it wasn't clear in my neck of the woods but I tried to make the best of the situation by photographing thru the high thin clouds that occasionally revealed themselves between the long stretches of heavy overcast ones.
This is a 10 second long exposure at f25 and a solar filter.
Took a few pics of the solar eclipse which was only partial here in Trinidad. Cloud cover made it even more elusive but I got off a few OK shots...
We didn't get a full eclipse here in Northwestern Montana, but the skies were clear and it was a great event nonetheless! :D
Exif for most images: f/32 at 1/200 sec, 200mm, Canon EOS 5D Mark II, stacked 10 and 6-stop ND filters.
Kansas City Eclipse 2017
I found a nice little spot that I had mostly to myself till about 30 minutes before totality. The morning storms had cleared out just in time for the eclipse to start, but returned just as we went into totality. The experience was amazing. Now to start planning 2024.
These are the patterns of shadows and patches of sunlight filtered through the trees during today's solar eclipse at 98% totality. My whole backyard looked like this with this pattern on the dirt and my concrete patio:0
All of the night insects, especially the cicadas, got all fired up, singing their little hearts out for about five minutes during the darkness. I was hoping the owls might get tricked into hooting, but I didn't hear them, so I guess maybe they slept through the event.
As seen from Washington, DC with my X100F through eclipse glasses.
This photo featured in the Washington Post's Capital Weather Gang blog.
I know I know, it's far from what we usually deliver, BUT IT WAS SHOT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE AFTERNOON lol!!! I did a whole video about it: youtu.be/cdLRrUKJUsU
The 6 hr drive north totality would have been a bit too much for the little ones, so we headed to Kennedy Space Centre which was only an hour away. This was my third drive to the Atlantic coast this week...
Captured over the course of 30 mins the moon can be seen moving across the path of the sun.
One more shot of the eclipse we captured in Nashville, Tennessee with a vintage Danubia 500mm f8 telephoto lens mounted on a Sony A7R II with a Fotodiox T2 to Sony E-mount lens adapter.
On May 25, 2017, NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, or SDO, saw a partial solar eclipse in space when it caught the moon passing in front of the sun. The lunar transit lasted almost an hour, between 2:24 and 3:17 p.m. EDT, with the moon covering about 89 percent of the sun at the peak of its journey across the sun’s face. The moon’s crisp horizon can be seen from this view because the moon has no atmosphere to distort the sunlight.
On Monday, August 21, 2017, all of North America will be treated to an eclipse of the sun. Anyone within the path of totality can see one of nature’s most awe inspiring sights - a total solar eclipse. This path, where the moon will completely cover the sun and the sun's tenuous atmosphere - the corona - can be seen, will stretch from Salem, Oregon to Charleston, South Carolina. Observers outside this path will still see a partial solar eclipse where the moon covers part of the sun's disk. NASA created this website to provide a guide to this amazing event. Here you will find activities, events, broadcasts, and resources from NASA and our partners across the nation.
