石垣島の部分日蝕とサガリバナ

June 21, 2020

I cranked the ISO up to 204800 to coax the sun out from behind the clouds, and just managed to get the shot at 17:16:33 — ten seconds after the maximum eclipse at 17:16:23. Not something you can do without a mirrorless camera. ^^

There were plenty of people from other outlets there too, but the thick cloud had everyone giving up on shooting.
