photo bombed eclipse test

[Pete Presland]

I thought I would do a quick field of view test, just in case it is clear tonight ? 

Using my Canon 450/ED80 I wanted to make sure there was a decent amount of room around the Moon, so when it is rising I might capture a few horizon details. 1st photo last night and a plane flew straight across the disc.

I can count on one hand how many times this has happened to me, its a good omen for tonight I am sure...……. ? Fingers crossed everybody!

Good catch Pete, also tried to have a practice last night but only got cloud, fingers crossed for tonight.

Nicely caught!  Was out testing widefield shots with my Canon 4000D last night. Nothing as dramatic as yours with anything flying in front of though.

Forecast looking dodgy, may have to catch it between thunderstorms.
