Eclipse 2024 by Peeb OK, on Flickr
Got to shoot the 2017 Eclipse, but in my excitement, I failed to see that I had bumped the focus ring and my diamond ring shots were uniformly soft. Shutter speeds were also too slow to 'freeze' the prominences.
Got some painter's tape and sealed off the ring this time, upped my shutter speed- did the trick!
Nikon Z6
Nikkor 200-500 f/5.6 set to 500
f 8
1/3000 shutter

Processing:
