A Big Diamond Ring

One of my favorite images from my trip to the Cherokee Indian Reservation in North Carolina. This one was shot with a Nikon D50 through my Orion 127mm Mak-Cass:

I bet your eye ball was a bit like that during totality . Great image

That's a beauty, one of the best I have seen!

Love it!

Thanks, everyone, for your replies. This was my first eclipse so I had three cameras set up: one attached to my scope, one handheld and a camcorder. Amazingly, I had the presence of mind to take off my glasses during totality and look (while taking removing solar filters to take images). It was quite an experience!
