Location

I took this image off the beaten path, in a soybean field, down in Greeleyville,SC.

Time

This was during totality of the Solar eclipse. I believe it was close to 2pm.

Lighting

It was a bit spooky, the moon blocking out the sun light. It was beautiful, kinda like dusk. There was also some cool lightening going on, but had no time to catch any of that. I wish I had more time for the eclipse!

Equipment

I used my Canon t6 with my 75-300mm lens. With out the solar filter for this shot,since it was in totality. Definitely on the tripod!

Inspiration

The great American Eclipse only happens so often, we happen to live in the path of totality, definitely gonna take the shots! Next time the solar eclipse happens in 2024 we will travel.

Editing

I adjusted the contrast to my liking.

In my camera bag

I have a canon t3 & t6....I always have my 100mm macro.....16-35mm. I might throw in some other lenses, but those are my fav. I always keep tripod and remote shutter. Extras of cards, batteries,etc.

Feedback

Practice,Practice,Practice....keep shooting!
