jimoshel Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Didn't see a thing. Something was blocking the sun and no light was getting thru. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Automan2164 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Yup, eclipse on Comanche. I'll post some direct pics once I get them off my camera. I totally forgot about this effect with eclipses... How cool would it be to set up a board with an array of holes facing the sun. Would make an excellent artsy shot on the other side with the light that cast through.

86FUBAR Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Was out in the back yard today around 6:30 ish when my bro called from Sacramento which is about 3 hrs north away and asked if I was seeing the eclips and I couldn't see squat ! I still can't see anything that sun is bright :eek: . After putting on 4 pair of sun glasses I could kinda see the sun was covered a little bit but that was it .

fiatslug87 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Here are some pics I took with a welding mask lens in front of my camera lens. Location 30º31'04.56 N, 121°26'51.84 W. What is better, a total eclipse or an annular eclipse? Hmm... I will drink a Corona but I won't put my lips on an Annulus. :ack: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW86 Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Yup, eclipse on Comanche. I'll post some direct pics once I get them off my camera. do you neighbors hate you or what. always having MJs out on the street. do you move them around or leave them in one spot? not that i live in a big city or anything but i know people in memphis are "female dogs" when it comes to cars in front of their house constantly.

TylerJY Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 No :( We have had clear skies all week, but of course today had to be overcast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for posting the images. Have seen plenty of total eclipses in various locales but never an true annular. Conditions have to be perfect which seldom happens. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeepdoggydogB Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 Great PICS Mike, The thing that I noticed from the rings of fire was the blinding reflections from my windshield and black truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Sam Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 We had some clouds but I did manage to snap a few quick photos behind a welding helmet before the sun went down behind the mountains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My neighbors LOVE me, I lend them tools and help them with their projects. All my trucks run and I do drive each at least once a week. They are always parked in front of my house (always in the same order) not the neighbor's, the tan MJ belongs to my neighbor across the street Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
