Annular Eclipse from San Diego (some singles and big composite)

[cfusionpm]

I was getting some super sharp shots throughout the afternoon. Almost all the shots before the end were 1/8000, f/32, 400mm, ISO 100, and three stacked ND filters (0.3, 0.6, and 0.9). You could see sunspots and the waves from heat/atmosphere! By the end of the day, I was still shooting 1/4000, f/22, ISO 100, but without the ND's (took them off one by one near the end). The color of the peak image was pure white out of camera. Colored using RAW temp (bringing to 16k). Colors for all other sun images are as they were shot. Still working on some of the specifics for number and layout of the composite. Playing with a couple different options.

This is the first sun/eclipse I've ever shot. Pics of my setup below. C&C welcome.

nice! I like the sunset one, the eclipse was all over before the sunset where I was at so I didn't get a chance for images like that one.
