We had clouds during the first contact of the eclipse. It made for some anxious times. The clouds were moving pretty fast. It did create an interesting shot.

An amazing sight to see.
Rockport Beach, Rockport Texas Annular Solar Eclipse was worth the trip. A cold front came in and the winds were blowing 20-30 mph at times. It made a challenging photo shoot for sure.
Here is a collage of some of the better shots.

In Texas, we get to see two solar eclipse’s within 6 months between October 2023 and April 2024. I am getting ready!
My next few posts will be of the sun.

They will mostly all be taken with my Tamron 150-600 with a 1.4 teleconverter.

While attempting to capture some pictures of the Perseid Meteor Shower, I grabbed my new Tamron 150-600 with the TC-1.4 teleconverter, I took a few shots of the moon.

I’ve wanted a soft focus lens for a while without smearing Vaseline on a filter. The Lensbaby Soft Focus 2 does the trick.

This will be the final post of this shoot at White Rock lake. I still can’t believe I even captured pictures of a nesting pair of Bald Eagles much less a mating nesting pair!




I filled up the buffer on my camera at least twice and took about a hundred pictures of these guys in the act.
