Default 2017 Eclipse

Hopefully many on here got to go out and see!

Talk about a religious out of this world experience like no other, and I'd thought all these people going on and on about it were on drugs/crazy! I actually feel bad for those that either thought they "saw the eclipse" but only saw 99.8%, which isn't the same at all, or the ones that were within a days drive and decided it wasn't a big deal.

Photographed for over 21+ years, never seen anything more spectacular!

Shot with a Canon 5dmkiv carefully liveview focused after the eclipse phase had begun, which I discovered it's much easier to live view focus as the sun glare decreases.

Av mode: F22 1/25th ISO 100 mirror lockup + 2 second delay:

Some video, watch the whole thing, some 4k zoomed going from totality back to normal, pretty amazing!
