Eclipse?

This week, as the eagerly anticipated eclipse drew near, residing in Rochester, NY, I was filled with anticipation to capture some breathtaking photographs of the corona and the overall event. Unfortunately, the weather had its own agenda, resulting in a complete absence of eclipse visibility due to cloud cover. Despite the inevitable disappointment, Rochester's unpredictable weather is something one learns to navigate with a sense of resignation.

However, it's worth noting that the brief span of darkness, coupled with the dramatic cloud formations, lent an eerie atmosphere to the day. This unique experience was further enhanced by sharing this moment with our friends and neighbors. Below is a selection of photographs I managed to take, offering a glimpse into the event's subtle beauty.

How was your experience? Did you have better luck?
