Used a Canon Powershot and solar optical film. Image is normally just shades of blue-gray, but I colorized them in post.

Nice photos! In the Bay Area at least, this eclipse wasn’t as good as the one back in… 2017 I think? but it was still something cool to look at (safely)

Thanks! 2017 had much more sun coverage, it was more like 75-80% and I remember the loss of light was noticeable. I have some photos from that one too :)

Here you go. The large shots were taken by putting my phone camera to the eyepiece of a bird spotting scope, so there’s a lot of interference on the edges and the images aren’t nearly as clear. And as you can see it was cloudy that day.
