Wouldn't you know it. As soon as I told friends that the clouds would prevent us from seeing the eclipse on Sunday evening, the sky developed a bunch of holes enabling 'patient' viewers to catch glimpses during the event - especially the partial phases where the moon is still bright enough to make it through the thin clouds.
I didn't setup the telescope and imaging equipment for fear of rain showers setting in (didn't happen after all - oh well). But I got out my Canon 70D, tripod and remote shutter release and captured one fairly good frame of the total phase.
I have others of the partial phase which I'll post later.
Should have set up that telescope :)
