Half Eclipsed Sun - a photo on Flickriver

Half Eclipsed Sun

            After years of planning, the Great Solar Eclipse of 2024 arrived.  However, nature had other ideas as the forcast was for clouds throughout most of Texas.  The elcipse arrived along with the clouds, leaving me to scramble each time the sun poled through the low clouds for maybe 2 seconds at a time, leaving scant time to frame, focus and nail the exposure.  Most often, I missed the focus and exposure, but after heavy post-processing, this collection of photos is the best I could manage.  The cloud cover clearly affected the results.
