I'll see if I can get one of his pics to post, with his permission.
(and yeap, ED80 mounted reverse, just to prevent any risk of damage if a cap were to fall off, he puts it on so he can attach the PST)

Ok Great.
Yeah I tried this myself but couldnt reach a suitable focus; so spent most of the time visually looking through the PST. Would have been nice to capture the Prominence that were sliced and hidden by the eclipse as the moon passed through the suns path.
