More Eclipse, 20May12, Kansas
Glad to see others were able to see the event. Clouds most of the day in Topeka but they broke up early in afternoon with northerly wind.
Drove to a country road to get a Kansas prairie view and took quite a few shots. Used a 100-300 Nikkor lens [old vintage] with a polarizer and an old Nikkor 500mm reflex.
Some of the clouds added color so it was interesting.

Very nice. Glad to see folks got out for it. When 2017 rolls around let's do it again

Nicely done, Larry! I like the second one best, but the dark cloud at the top is a little distracting. I'd be tempted to try a little content-aware fill... :smile:
