ECLIPSE!!! This is a hand-held photo most of the way through totality taken with a 20 mm lens; exposure 1/3 second, f/2.8 on Sensia II ASA 400 film. This eclipse was darker than I had previously experienced so I wasn't expecting the required exposure to be so long. The lights in the town are not automatic -- they were turned on intentionally for the eclipse. The trailing edge of the Moon's shadow can be seen coming across the sky. A small cloud interfered with observing the outer corona only.
