Darkness at Noon

We didn't plan to make a big deal about it and never took the time to find a pair of eclipse glasses.  In the event, I figured the totality of the eclipse and the magic of the camera lens would be good enough.  It wasn't (above).

Fortunately, the brightest (har har) member of the family thought to grab a roll of over-exposed analog film.  VSO taped a strip to each side of her glasses and invented the perfect home-made eclipse viewer.  She shared a piece with me so that I could put it over the camera lens.  Voila.  The Ring of Fire!
