APOD: Yesterday's eclipse.
So true.
Crappy cellphone camera, just to give an idea of the partial eclipse.

@eylul This is why I started prep 2 days early 😉
The big lens has a fiddly focus ring and I wanted to mark a rough starting point for the eclipse as well as make sure the rails/camera/lens were all nice and situated.
I also have never used the a6500 on a tripod (wanted to be 100% it was stable) and I wanted to be sure the A mount adapter I'm going to be using worked proper for manual focus and the like.
