Seeing the total solar eclipse in person is an experience far beyond what any photo or video could show, don't forget it.
Thinking of attempting to photograph the upcoming total solar eclipse? I tried in vain to capture the last one with my iPhone Pro Max and DSLR, but ultimately I'm glad I decided to simply enjoy the experience. The real eclipse is a breathtaking display that cannot be replicated through a camera lens. When I saw the total solar eclipse in person, I was struck by its sheer beauty and fleeting nature.
The corona dazzled and flared with magic, a sight that left me awestruck and in silence. Despite bringing a telescope, DSLR, and three phones to the event, my plans were overwhelmed by the short duration of totality and the technical challenges of capturing the scene. In the end, the visual spectacle of the eclipse far outshone any photo I could have taken.
