Hi Everyone,

I was fortunate to experience the eclipse today in Granby, Quebec. As we arrived in Granby at a random gas station, we bumped into an intrepid group also from Ottawa. We chatted, and quickly decided to change plans to join each other and go to a random parking lot to avoid the crowds. We did, and shared in an experience we will all be talking about for years to come I'm sure.

Attached is my picture I took. I left almost all my gear at home... choosing to just experience the eclipse without the stress of my scope, filters, laptop, fancy cameras, etc. All I had was eclipse glasses, my smartphone with an app, and my mirrorless camera to snap this picture.

I arrived home, and was relieved and overjoyed to see that I managed to focus properly. Things looked good on the back of the camera screen, but all bets are off until you blow things up on a bigger screen.

Anyhow, wanted to share. I hope you all had a great experience too! Take care, and hope to see you around one day soon,

Andrea
