When you've taken your pictures of the 2024 Solar Eclipse, please share some of your pictures here.

Don't share only pictures of the actual eclipse. Take pictures of you, your family, and your friends enjoying it.

Did anyone get some really cool pictures??

I got a few good ones with my phone. I wasn't able to capture a picture of totality, but he had a full 4 minutes of it.

Nah, I really didn’t bother taking pictures. My photo skills suck and I’d rather see good professional photos instead of my sorry efforts.

Here is what I got taking a picture of a pinhole projection.

This one of the early "bite" was taken on an iPhone, with a spare pair of glasses cut into a filter for the lens:

And this one is the crescents from a pinhole projector I made:

There was a 5 degree temperature drop because of the eclipse. My area was only 81.7% blocked.

We didn't get good pics of the eclipse with our phones, plus the clouds kept going in and out-but my Godson enjoyed all the fuss and getting to wear the cool glasses:

Cool glasses for sure!

We had partly cloudy… right up until 10 minutes before ‘peak’ and overcast was settling in.

Still managed some cool images. My favorites are the time-lapsed videos I took.

I didn't get any pictures of my grandsons and I wish I did, but they were having more fun wrestling in the field than actually watching the eclipse. I think they got bored rather quickly. I did use the glasses on my phone and got a couple of decent pics. We had clouds moving in so I was happy with these. Philadelphia didn't get totality but it was exciting all the same

I didn’t take any photos. My DD is the photographer of the family. This was in Indiana.

Hopefully everyone hoping to see this was able to dodge the clouds. I ended up deciding on one location, spent the night, and woke up to skies that worried me. I went into chaser mode and drove to a more favorable spot. The pictures don’t do it justice, but it was utterly spectacular! I also added a video where you can see some of the planets that were visible.

Sorry, just saw this post. Yesterday was a LOOOOOOONG day. It looks like they only carried over as links, so I'm going to try and copy the physical images in here so it's visible during scrolling. While I was surrounded by many, I was solo for this event. Most of my non-eclipse pictures were showcasing sky conditions and the meteorological cloud clearing effect. I took a little over 400 pics, but decided to quiet the photographer side of me in the big moment. I realized that the big lens on my camera was like a telescope and I was missing a potentially once in a lifetime experience fiddling with settings. So, I shifted to auto and enjoyed. My only regret is not shifting into video mode on the big camera for a bit.

Take pictures of you, your family,

My grandson, Jeremy, (17 years old today) and me, enjoying a memory together.

Such a cool experience!

Seeing your crescent pics makes me sad that I didn't capture any this time. I wasn't around much to caste a shadow. I tried taking off my Crocs in hopes that the holes on top might do something, but no luck from the angles I had. Oh well, at least I got to do it during the annular back in October.

And looking at your photos made me sad I hadn't figured out a filter for my DSLR. I actually was reminded of the crescent idea when I was online at the last minute trying to see if I could find a way to photograph the sun itself. We had fun though, digging through the cabinets for just the right things to play with. Also fired up the Cricut to cut a page full of holes. Since then saw a sunburst shaped item that had "Eclipse 2024" cut from dots to do the crescent shadow thing. Wish I had done that too!

I'm gonna have to eat my Wheaties and try again at age 82!
