2017/08/21 90% Eclipse, Wichita, KS, USA - Beginning
The Eclipse was very impressive. I took this from my home driveway after I got off work. Sadly, for my wife and grandkids, they drove to the 100% zone near Hiawatha, KS, but it was mostly overcast and rainy. They got only the briefest glimpse of the corona. I had a clear view of the Eclipse.
Heading back home, they got stuck in 4mph-to-stalled traffic on the way. it took them from 1:30pm to 10:30pm to go only 240 miles [approx. 386Km] due to traffic congestion. BTW, 170miles of the 240mi. is Turnpike with a 75mph [121 kph].
I used an ISO/CE approved filter on both my eyes and the camera lens.
Thanks for viewing my gallery. Thanks for your comments. Sorry I haven't been able to make many comments lately.
