Time:  ~7:40 PM
Location:  Mt. Palomar, California. 

C90 1000mm lens, 400 Kodak Royal Gold, ~60th sec exposure, sidereal guide motor.

It was mostly clear, with haze near the horizon.  I was parked in a turn-out/parking lot off Hwy S-6 at about 4000 foot altitude, waiting for the Moon to rise.   When it did, the eclipse was well under way.
