Hi All. First time poster in here. Hope you are not over eclipse shots yet. I actually won a trip up to see the Eclipse with ABC Radio. I took my 7 year old son with me.

They did a live broadcast from a front yard in Mareeba. Glad they made the call to travel up there as we had beautifully clear skies. My first eclipse and first attempt at photographing one. Suffice to say I was thrilled with the experience and the photos I got. I used my trusty Nikon D40 with an 18-250mm mounted on a tripod and clicked away with the remote while watching it all.

An experience I will never forget. EDIT: Last 2 are composite and an artistic reflection.
