Glenmore Reservoir during a weak chinook arch afternoon. Erased electrical transmission lines on horizon and did 20% AI enhancement along with cropping and minor rotating to keep the horizon level in Luminar 4.
My journey to capture an eclipse photo
1. A large “pin hole” image….. no luck
Second try…. a kitchen colander…. this I heard would also work…. one of the holes seemed to work but… there was a flaw in the hole… but still it is a circle photo.
Final try….. photo directly of sun with my cell phone then manipulate in Lightroom, brightness, contrast and cropped,
Thought I thought I might get a half circle nip out of the bottom of the sun… but still no luck…..
