Description

Image was taken while hiking in the Sierras near Truckee, CA on May 12, 2012. The equipment was quite low tech - a small Canon point and shoot camera using four sunglass lenses polarized against each other as a neutral density filter. Not exactly an easy setup to use so only a few images were taken. I was happy a couple captured the annular phase. I'm posting this as a lead up to the impending solar eclipse.
