Truck Eclipse
We are just exiting a solar eclipse here and I thought I would post a few pictures of the refractions.
Sorry I couldn't take direct pictures, but we had fun looking at the crescents. Joe

Re: Truck Eclipse
Very cool pictures!
I took this one a couple hours ago on top of Parley's Summit about 10 miles East of Salt Lake.  I just held my welding lens that I had been using in front of my digital. It kind of came out negative-ish, with the bright center being the Moon, and the Ring of Fire not quite perfect.
