Near-total solar eclipse (95% coverage) Hadley MA - Photo by S. Vardatira |
A series of minor mishaps as I was leaving the house this afternoon resulted in my forgetting my tripod at home, which, in turn, meant that none of my "eclipse" photos are worth a darn. But here's the thing - it doesn't matter at all. Happily, I still had my eclipse glasses, and every "bite out of the sun" view was thrilling. Took this photo in Hadley at the moment closest to totality for us (sun 95% covered). No, you can't see a sliver of sun - that's how bright even 5% of the sun is - but the optical effect courtesy of the eclipse was very cool, nevertheless. Clouds, sun, beams of light. Grateful for all of it!
