This being my first totality experience, I had vowed beforehand to not spend the entire experience fumbling with a camera. I did, however, get drawn in by the view in the eyepiece and so plucked off a few shots with the cell phone in an attempt to capture it. The image below reflects the results of that effort.

Re: Totality
Incredibly fantastic image, Mike, and all the more that it was from a cell phone. Nice job!

Re: Totality
I was wondering, though, why it took you so long to post your image. You know, Mike, you can post the image directly from your phone. You don't have to send them out to Kodak anymore and wait for them to come back.
