Solar Eclipse in New South Wales

[mEc]

Taken from La Perouse

Very cool shot.

Anyone else think that the bright patch in the sky looks like Singapore??

it looks like the sun is on fire ... obviously it is but anyway...

mEc - awesome photo !!

You obviously did not heed all the warnings about not photographing the solar eclipse huh ?

Did you use anything to protect your camera ? How did you frame this shot without looking directly at the sun ?

cheers,

Well the pic is great...
It might be better if less of the sea is taken.

there's the smoke from the bush fire nearby covering the sun, so i dont think there's a need to protect the camera.

i just use the lcd on the camera to frame the shot loh, anyway this picture is cropped.

same thinking, but this is the best i can do with cropping. the original picture has 50% water and 50% sky.
