Well, I'm back from the rabbit hole of very little (zero) imaging and posting.  My apologies to all those I follow for being really poor at checking out everyone's images over the summer.  I was very engaged in a lot of traveling, family events, etc., etc., etc.  But now that fall has come, I've gotten back to the skies.  How could I pass up the wonderful eclipse on 10/14/2023!  Even at a max of only 72% of the sun's disk covered, the darkening was quite evident; a neighbor's rooster began to crow as the light dimmed.  I had to battle high clouds for much of the imaging, but even so, the results were not too bad at all.  My wife took a really nice photo of the setup:



Over the course of the first half of the eclipse I took a series of 25s and 30s videos; exposure times varied due to the cloud cover at the moment ranging from about 0.025s to 0.050s.  Each video had in the vicinity of 400 frames, depending on frames dropped and the actual length of the video.  For the main image posted here (sort of the pick of the litter) I stacked 10 % of the frames at a starting time of 10:18 a..m. MDT.  I used a Baader continuum filter to enhance detail and then converted to a false yellow color for display purposes.  Although I am smart enough to manage taking and processing images, I am not smart enough to do proper mouseovers.  So the additional images I included with this post are given as revisions that must be clicked on.  Sorry!  "Revision D" is of the eclipsed sun at the moment of maximum coverage, which came at 10:36 a.m. MDT.  This is a pretty significant reduction of the sunlight that was fun to see.  "Revision C" is a closeup animation of some 40 frames as the moon's disk began to cover the sunspot group AR3465.  My wife and I looked carefully at the monitor to see if we could perceive actual motion of the moon's disk relative to the sun's surface, but it was too subtle to really observe.  So, for fun, I took a 25 s video as the moon began to move over the sunspot; I then took every tenth frame out of the video, put them into an animation and adjusted the frame display times so that the animation lasts around 20-some seconds, which decently matches the length of the original video.  The result is a ballpark view of just how fast the moon seems to move over the sun!  Hope you find it  interesting!
