I had to leave for work 40 min before maximum coverage in my area, so I took this shot through the glass of a welder's mask just before leaving. An amazing and inspirational natural event.
A wide angle view of Monday's Eclipse during totality in Idaho while a man watches the event through binoculars in the distance. The title is from the Chris Cornell song which came to me as I was watching totality. The goosebumps I already had now had goosebumps. Shortly after this shot I found out we were 12 miles away facing towards the burial ground of an experimental government reactor SL-1 that melted down horrifically in 1961, killing 3 people.

jsc2017e110783 (Aug. 21, 2017) --- Employees at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston joined the rest of the country in experiencing the 2017 eclipse on Aug. 21, 2017. Many used protective eclipse glasses, and others made use of manufactured or pin-hole cameras of opportunity to view the eclipse. In Houston, the partial eclipse duration was 2 hours, 59 minutes, reaching its maximum level of 67 percent at 1:17 p.m. CDT. Some members of the team supporting the International Space Station in the Christopher C. Kraft Mission Control Center took advantage of a break in their duties to step outside the windowless building to witness what their colleagues in orbit also saw and documented with a variety of cameras.

Sunrise, 21 August, 2017 at Glendo State Park, Wyoming.
We were assisting with parking. Current estimate is that there were about 55,000 people in the State Park, with many in the surrounding areas.
We started parking people around 4 AM, but they had been streaming in at midnight. While directing traffic, I saw the sunrise and had to grab it on the phone.

iss052e056225 (Aug. 21, 2017) --- As millions of people across the United States experienced a total eclipse as the umbra, or moon’s shadow passed over them, only six people witnessed the umbra from space. Viewing the eclipse from orbit were NASA’s Randy Bresnik, Jack Fischer and Peggy Whitson, ESA (European Space Agency’s) Paolo Nespoli, and Roscosmos’ Commander Fyodor Yurchikhin and Sergey Ryazanskiy. The space station crossed the path of the eclipse three times as it orbited above the continental United States at an altitude of 250 miles.
Dave: Hey Bruno, what do you think of the eclipse?
Bruno: Not much.
Dave: Really? I think it's pretty cool and it is rare that we get a chance to witness something like this.
Bruno: Nope. Don't think much of it. I'd rather be swimming.
Dave: Fair enough. I guess the millions of people watching the moon temporarily shadow portions of the earth from the sun are all wrong.
Bruno: Really? Millions of people watching? And they're not just there for the eclipse cookies?
Dave: Yup. Not just for the eclipse cookies. I think Eva made those up.
Bruno: Well, if you say it's such a big thing when something shadows the earth from the sun, I have some jumping to do and you can marvel at the eclipse shadow that I create.
Dave: I think the shadow has to be caused by a larger body a significant distance from the earth to be considered an eclipse.
Bruno: Well then, lets go to the store and buy me 60 tubs of ice cream and a trampoline. This golden eclipse is going to be epic!

Bruno unimpressed by the celestrial movements of the eclipse last Monday. This photo was not my plan for the week. In fact this event was not my plan for the week. I had set up binoculars and a blocking paper to project the eclipse onto a piece of cardboard, and the kids still had a tent set up from Sunday night's "camp out". Bruno was supposed to be on the deck with the other dogs, but broke down grabbed his toy and dropped it off the end of the dock so he could get some jumping in. This was a reactive shot as I saw him staring to shake while looking in the direction of the eclipse shadow so grabbed this one at the end of the shake. I didn't even notice Eva and Agnes watching until I was posting the image. This photo is much more cluttered than my usual approach to photography, but I do love the story it tells and the memories it holds so it had to be part of his 52 weeks set.
Eclipse watching , New Mexico Museum Of Natural History And Science, Albuquerque, New Mexico August 21, 2017
It was fun watching and taking pictures ! I stacked 5 window tilting film between lens and UV Filter and got some good picture.

Total Solar Eclipse 2017 from Glendo State Park, Wyoming, USA. This was the most awesome experience of our lives! My husband Mark and I travelled to the USA with my 2 youngest stepchildren to see this eclipse for our honeymoon (we actually got married in October 2016, but it was worth the wait for our honeymoon!). The eclipse was exactly 2 years ago today, so I have just reprocessed all of my images plus made a new video of showing our images of the event.
We stayed in Denver, but set off at 1:30am to drive to Glendo. The population of Glendo was 205, so it must have been quite something for the locals to witness 100,000 cars in the state park, plus an estimated half a million more cars in the general are around Eastern Wyoming!
First Contact: 10:24 Local Time / 16:24 UT
Totality: 11:46 Local Time / 17:46 UT
Last Contact: 12:55 Local Time / 18:55 UT
We put so much work into planning the photography of this eclipse. We had 4 x Canon 1100D cameras capturing the eclipse. Camera 1 was on a Star Adventurer Mini and was tracking the Sun during the entire event so we could create the timelapse video. Camera 2 was shooting the entire event widefield and all of the images were stacked to create a single image of the entire event. Camera 3 was hand-held with a 300mm zoom lens. We didn’t have room in our luggage for a 4th tripod so I intended to use my table top tripod on the roof of the car. However, I wasn’t tall enough to reach the roof of the hire car, so I had to hold it manually! During totality I manually bracketed the shots to capture the fainter regions of the corona as well as the part closest to the Sun. The final totality image was completely reprocessed from scratch on the 2 year anniversary of the eclipse, and it is a blend of 4 different exposures. I was extremely emotional during totality and trying to hold my camera steady whilst sobbing was quite a challenge! The 4th camera was used by Mark to capture totality but those images are not included in this video.
I still get goosebumps when I look at these images and still can’t quite believe we took them! I made a point of putting the camera down for part of totality just so I could look with my own eyes and not live the entire event through a camera lens. I hope you enjoy seeing the images as much as I do.

View of the Eclipse 2017 from Arecibo, Puerto Rico.
Although here in Puerto Rico the eclipse was partial, the sky darkened a lot and gave a surreal feeling to the afternoon.
Sun stars radiate from the crescent-shaped sliver of sun not obscured by the moon. This photo was taken at the height of the solar eclipse, at 0922 PTD on August 21, 2017. This was only a partial eclipse, as viewed from Mount Tabor Park in Portland, Oregon. These radiating sun stars are caused by the aperture blades in the lense closed down to form a small iris.

In Maine the max coverage of the sun by the moon during the Eclipse of 2017 was between 50-60 percent. I made this picture by punching tiny holes in the date which I'd printed on matte paper and photoing the images of the eclipse that shown through onto a big sheet of white paper.

We didn't get much of an Eclipse here in Texas. 🌙 only covered the 🌞 66% right around 1:10PM. Taken on a NIKON. #Eclipse2017
