There was an obscuring of sorts, making for a total eclipse (of my heart) Taken in Andrews, North Carolina, on the Tenessee border. There were hundreds of thousands of people there for the party. :)
This is called a diamond ring. You have the "ring" and the shiny stone- off to the right. Isn't she pretty?
Beautiful crescent approaching C2 (C2 is the beginning of totality - a total eclipse of the sun) This looks like a crescent moon, but instead of craters, you can see the sun spot.
The last step before Totality. Presentation of Baily's Beads - the last sunlight shown between the mountains and craters of the moon.
Diamond ring is the main attraction of solar eclipse ......
It is. Unfortunately, I was writing this on the run. I would have like to have written it a little bit differently.
Very nice shots! Upvoted and followed. Check out our pics from Tennesseee: https://steemit.com/photography/@vsoutdoorsnaps/total-solar-eclipse-in-spring-city-tn
Thank you! I did. Very impressive!
WOW you got amazing shots of it,
Thanks, Jj! I did have to go to the Tennessee border to get it! Well worth the trip!
Absolutely worth the trip those are brilliant!!!!!
Thanks again!
You got some amazing shots! The information about the eclipse is fascinating. I recall watching an eclipse when I was a child and this time the spooky atmosphere was totally awesome. Great post. Resteemed and upvoted!
I took one every minute for the three hour time frame, plus every 30 seconds during the 2 minutes and 38 seconds it was in view (total eclipse) It was an amazing experience and I was not happy with pictures showing up in the preview and disappearing on this post, but... hey. Stuff happens. I need to get out of the habit of quickly posting and not focusing on the writing!

Hope all is well with you, my dear. You are such a sweet soul surrounded by the sometimes harshness we call life. xoxox
That sounds phenomenal and what a wonderful project. I'm sorry about the disappearing images. Can you reload?
Thank you for your kind words.💕
I posted them on Monday. I just posted a couple of extra after that. I was a wonderful experience! How are YOU doing? :hearts:
I'm recovering from the migraine I got this morning, but otherwise ok. Lots of struggles for me and my dear ones, but resting on hope. I'll check out your new posts! How are you, sweet friend?
I lost this comment in the shuffle. Hey, that sounds rough. You are in my thoughts, in my prayers I am great and life is good.
Thank you for checking me all out. That was so nice of you. xo
Thank you! I'm happy to hear all is well and I really enjoy your Steemit posts. ❤

Thank you so much. Saun!
I thank you first for giving me the feeling I was there, just in front of the sun! Then I want to thank you for making me envious because of the quality of your photos. Generally, I'm not an envious man. And at the end, I want to thank you!
Hi, Dan! It was a wondergul event! I hAd to dtive about ten hours to get there, but it was well wirth the trouble and tragfic! Thank ypu for the compliment on the photos. It was the first time on the new lens!
Thank you for taking the time to view it!
You are welcome, you know that is a continue pleasure for me to look at your pictures and believe me, I felt that it was a change with your camera.
Only the lens. Same old camera. Hope you have a pleasant night.
Thanks for the wish! What good would it be if I could change my lenses (eyes)!
:)
Woooww that is so pretty! I have seen partial eclipses, but never a full one like this.
Did it get cold too?
I traveled a few states away because I had never seen one either! The temperature dropped and it got dark (and the mosquitoes came out!!!) It was very eerie!!!!
Wooww.. so awesome! :D

Thank you so much! That is so kind of you! I was excited, a new lens and also terrified that theu wouldnt come out. 🌞
They are brilliant. Well done.
Thanks again!
Wow! This is absolutely stunning! I wish I could see this one day in reality! Breathtaking!
It was totally amazing! I hope you get to see one too!
These are all so incredible. I shared them on my FB page, too because I was quite astonished by them all! U&R
Thank you so much, Melinda! So kind of you! I took a picture e ery minute for the three hours
Hoping to make a time lapse!
Thanks for your support!
That is dedication!! Glad I got to see it through your camera. It was far too cloudy here, but we did get glimpses when the clouds would part. At least we got the general idea of how it looked.
So that's what you've been up to, Denise! Your solar eclipse photos are the definition of perfection and I'm sure NASA would pay for rights to use them!
❤ You say the sweetest things.
❤ That's because you take the sweetest photos!
xoxo
