Weekly Prompt Black came just in time for me to share my attempt to observe the partial eclipse from California, where the sun was only 35% covered for 10 minutes. I used a colander to catch the crescent sun and took one photo of the sun without looking, sorry it’s not black.





It turned a little dark and the birds made a little noise, and overall it was a pleasant morning with the family in the back yard.
Very neat captures. We had totality here for about a minute and a half. I enjoyed the reflections on the ground, too.

Lucky you! Did you see the corona?

Yes, and the diamond ring, too. We had mostly cloudy skies, but the clouds cleared enough just before totality.

I love your pictures! A rare experience. Our last one in the UK was sixteen years ago, and we’re not due again for another sixty years!
Thank you for sharing your experience with our challenge.
