2017 Solar Eclipse
* Location: Madras, Oregon
* Time: August 21, 2017
* Equipment: Nikon D5100, Nikkor 55-200 Zoom working at 200mm
* Settings: exp. 1/50 sec., ISO 100, f/14
* When you think about it, nearly two years of planning went into this single shot, picking the location, booking the site, flights and car rental. This was my first solar eclipse; there’s so much going on during totality, you don’t want to miss the experience, but you want to capture it, a mix of stress and excitement. I’m pleased that the shot captured some of the corona and a couple prominences.
