One of the last times I watched a lunar eclipse I was camping with my buddy, JC. We found a deep dark sky location in the Hurricane Creek Wilderness area on the Ozark Highlands Trail. It was a cold clear night and a perfect place from which to watch this spectacular natural event. Sorry folks … I have no pictures.
Last night I watched the eclipse from the back yard of my home. This time I did take a few photos. I think they turned out pretty good … not because of my talent but more because of my Sony 7R lll and a SonyFE 100-400 G lens. Even more amazing … these were hand held shots.
I love this stuff … and in 2017 Patti and I went over close to Nashville to photograph the Solar Eclipse. This time I was using my Canon 6D with a Canon 70-200 L lens. I especially like the total eclipse shot but am equally amazed with the ability to see sun spots in the top left photo. Click on any of these to enlarge.
The wonders of our world continue fascinate, expand imaginations and hopefully make us realize how small we humans are in this great universe.
FYI … you might consider a trip to Arkansas in April, 2024 … Little Rock will be directly in the path of the next major North American Solar Eclipse. Besides that, there are plenty of other reasons to come and enjoy …
