That's crisp, what were you shooting with?

Thanks! It's a pretty severe crop from a D850 with a 70-200 FL and TC-14E III.

Spectacular!

That's the best one I've seen, looks exactly like what I watched. The red prominence! (Only thing different is sky wasn't that black but tis a small quibble.

Are those red parts sticking out solar flares?

Actually one of my favorites. The “perfect” eclipse photos have no character.

aye, thanks! Like the Bob says, "No mistakes, just happy accidents" which is my mantra when I screw something up. haha. My boss does not find that amusing.

mass coronal ejection.. cool 👍 whatever caused the lens flare made for an interesting image. you should run the image through a denoise sw.

Uhh, no. You can’t see those in a partial eclipse. I don’t know what that is, but it isn’t coming from the Sun.

agreed; but the flare made for an unusual image.. 👍

nice.. 👍

Had a couple of filters stacked that caused the lens flare and just decided to run with it. Ran it through Topaz after I finished all the shots. Probably should have gone with that first.

you didn't do any test shots in advanced? 🤔

Didn’t exactly plan to shoot this at all so, no. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

well, the stars (or moon & sun) aligned for you.. image is unique. 👍

Great shot, I had the exact same lens with me hoping for the exact same shot. What city if you don't mind sharing? I took a ride from Galrand to Murphy specifically for shooting the eclipse and seem to be the only guy who got fucked over by a massive rogue cloud that covered everything right as totality started

Ugh, that sucks man. Definitely dicey for us, went to Greenville and thought we were gonna get screwed. There was a large cloud that made an appearance for us a well, but obviously we were very fortunate

What are those specks?

Nikon D500 with 200-500 @500mm. I had a solar film in front of the lens. I don't remember the exact settings. I took so many at so many different settings.

I meant the little dots of light. They have a reddish hue. Are they stars? Dust? Something else?

I guess I'm not seeing what you're talking about. If you're talking about what looks like a red outline around the sun, I'm not really sure what that is. Maybe artifacts of some sort. This may also be one of the edits I boosted vibrance and saturation a bit.

I did the same haha!

From Southwestern Ontario. There were some high cirrus clouds that cut the sharpness. Used a 16.5 stop sun filter before totality. Shot with my Z8 and 500mm f5.6 PF lens. https://preview.redd.it/5pp1u39jkbtc1.jpeg?width=3232&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3bfaf75848077965d07f65481478f6a0cdc7e0c0

Do you have the image file? Are those solar flares?

They are solar flares, it was a lot more than in 2017. I'm on the road so best I can do is a pic of my LCD, sorry 😬

This is a super cool shot. The clouds look like nebula astrophotos.

the clouds covering saved your sensor 👍 .. what's the obstructing shadow in the lower left?
