(a poor pic of) The Great American Eclipse of 2017


From a friend's front yard in Keizer, Oregon (a suburb of Salem). His house lay right in the path of totality, and he let us park our trailer on his lawn. I didn't realize the corona would overexpose; if I ever get a chance to try another eclipse photo, I'll stop down the exposure a couple of notches.
Anyway, the sight is definitely worth traveling to see. You can understand why the spectacle was a total(!) freakout for people who didn't know what was going on. At the point of totality, when the (dark) lunar disk is outlined by the corona, it looks as though there's a black hole in the sky where the sun's supposed to be.
The insert shows a streetlight across from the house that clicked on during totality. We also saw Venus and Jupiter, but got no pix. There's also a "ring of twilight" all around, from the sky in the distance beyond the Moon's shadow.
