Default Solar Eclipse Photo...

Hi all,

I dusted the 8" Dobsonian (Newtonian telescope on an Alt-Azimuth mount) and shot a few
pics. Due to only having a point and shoot Sony hand held up to the eyepiece, this was the saver.

Thanks for sharing!

Since this is N. IL the sky was clear before and after the transit, but cloudy during it. "The Vixen" and I sat out on the front lawn and glimpsed what little there was but it was pretty lame.

C'mon 2024!
