And to think that I was not aware of the eclipse until an hour beforehand.. Thank goodness I became distracted while studying. This was taken tonight during the Partial Eclipse. It is my first time attempting this, so please feel free to give any pointers on the editing, etc. or what I can improve on.

Thanks,
Richard

Whoa, this is so cool. I actually hurt my eye photographing something like this years ago. Fortunately the exposure was short enough that I recovered fully.

Well done. The silhouettes and wisps of clouds are nice.
I do not know how my camera's sensor did, but I closed my eye and took the shot when I felt the sun through my eyelid.
