I'll post more info on the effect later, but here is the first single exposure, unprocessed image of the eclipse about 20 sec or so past mid-eclipse. Later I'll explain why I don't have images when it started!!

Total Eclipse 2017 - Initial Photo from Salem, SC

I'll post more info on the effect later, but here is the first single exposure, unprocessed image of the eclipse about 20 sec or so past mid-eclipse. Later I'll explain why I don't have images when it started!!
