In April I drove all the way to Texas to catch the total solar eclipse, and was fortunate to encounter clear skies from my viewing spot, just south of Dallas. Back in 2017, I also happened to photograph that year's total solar eclipse (in Idaho). For that photo, however, I forgot to turn off the camera’s “auto ISO” feature; as a result, the 2017 photo ended up being captured with a very high ISO, generating a lot of noise.
This year, however, I remembered to turn off the camera’s “auto ISO” feature, and took several photos at different shutter speeds (with a wide open aperture). This was the best photo of the set; it shows a solar prominence emerging from the moon’s lower edge.
