Doc - My Eclipse picture I told you about

[Basil]

I'm pretty sure I had posted this long time ago, but here it is again. A composite of several images taken at different shutter speeds, then exposure normalized.

I don't recall seeing it 'til now. Impressive shot. Now I understand the planning involved.

By the way, it was shot with my Sigma 150-600mm on a crop sensor body, so equivalent of 960mm.

Where else in the universe could you get a shot like this? Where a moon just covers a star to give that halo.

I dunno, my home planet has nothing like that!

Some other pics from that trip to Northern Wyoming.

Our Eclipse shooting location was just behind that barn. There were tens of thousands of people in the area to shoot this eclipse, but we had this huge ranch to ourselves. (Belongs to family of my Nephew's then fiancé, now wife)



Old farm truck


We camped out overnight for the eclipse event.

My setup for the Eclipse. Canon 7D Mark ii with Sigma 150-600mm (at 600mm) with a 95mm Formatt-Hitech Firecrest Eclipse Filter (The filter came off at the moment of totality)


Before totality. You can see sun spots at about 7 O'Clock.


Phenomenon called Bailey's Beads. Last remnants of sun shinning through peaks and valleys on the moon's surface.


B&W of old wagons on the ranch.

I know I keep saying it, but you've got images you could market as art! The one with the John Deere front loader is a good candidate. The last B&W one as well. Put your updated circle-C logo in them at the right-lower corner in black and it's unique ART!
