There was great hype about the solar eclipse. With 40% coverage here I knew that there would not be anything spectacular. I wasn't prepared to shoot the sun. I'll leave that to the pros.
I did take one shot shortly after 11:00 AM . and one at the height of the eclipse. Just looking out the window there was not much less light. the camera shows things a little darker.
Don't go by my times on the camera. The first shot is about 11:00 AM. the second shot is about 1:00 Pm.
So there wasn't a lot of hoopla at my place.
