Eclipse 2017

Here is what we saw in MA around 2:30 PM.

I took these pictures with Sony a5000 with 18-50 mm lens.


I used these settings (lowest possible light to sensor settings on this camera)
50 mm
F/35
1/4000
ISO 100
Manual Focus to infinity

I was surprised to learn that the Sun is so much smaller than it seems from the naked eye. I looked at the Sun through camera's LCD.

Things I wish I had:
A tripod.
A telephoto lens with at least 200 mm.
