Today was an astounding day, and richly rewarding. Another member of our astronomy club and I went to a college research station out in Sayville, and we set up four telescopes between us. We had about 200 visitors, both adults and children and everyone was amazed to watch the sequence of the moon moving across the sun. Everyone had such a great time, and they were so thankful that we were there with our telescopes for them. I also photographed the eclipse for the newspaper I used to work for, and they will be publishing some of the photos that look like this tomorrow. What a day!

The photos are great. I was able to experience 99.5% totality. An amazing day.
wonderful images! it was a memorable day of television here in cloudy austin.
What paper did you work for?
Very happy to see your blog post this morning with crystal clear photos of the eclipse. For us, living in coastal South Carolina, the event was a mixed bag due to heavy and ever changing cloud cover. But the brief moment of totality was worth the experience!!!
Wonderful photos. Thank you for sharing. I was in awe of Amy's post and how amazing it was to be in Oregon with a total eclipse.

Thank you all for the nice comments on the photographs!
I was shooting for Newsday, where I worked for 41 years, before retiring 8 years ago.
Terrific photos!
Your photos are incredible!. I was so happy to watch the partial eclipse. We did have some clouds but thankfully they disappeared about halfway through. Just amazing! betsey
