Description Lucky enough to be nearly in the path of totality.  We made the short drive into the path of totality and it was a terrific experience.
For us totality lasted about a minute, a little farther south they got 2 minutes but the traffic would have been much worse.

This is a blend of several exposures during totality.  You can make out the structure of the corona that highlights the magnetic fields around the sun, plumes and loops.
In the bottom left is Mercury

The temperature got cold and it got very dark.  All around the horizon it looked like sunset with a red glow.

I got 380 photos, will post a few more as I slowly go through them

D800 / 200mm / no filter

I'm so happy I actually got to see this man. We tried to take pics on our phone but naturally it didn't quite work :') We didn't get total totality where I was but we got reeeeeeally really close. You took an excellent photo of it though~

I didn't plan to drive to totality because the news made it sound terrible all week.  None of it panned out and traffic wasn't that bad at all, only drove out at the last minute and barely made it on time
