Eclipse 2017

An eclipse broke out in between clouds today, giving us much to ooh and aw about after darting out of work for a late lunch with the family to view the event.

Thanks to a solar filter from Thousand Oaks Optical, ordered quite awhile back for the occasion, my camera was ready to capture the moment.

While not at a location to see the totality, and with clouds blocking the eclipse from sight at times, I did get some decent pictures all the same.

    Pretty cool. It noticeably darkened here this morning, more than I expected.
