Scant Time for Practice Due to cloudy and rainy weather, my wife, Leona, and I are finding scant time to practice our photography for the April 8 solar eclipse. We waited all day today to get a couple of photos at about 1749 EDT. Still, the Sun's disc in this photo is mottled by thin clouds. Canon EOS R5 w. 800mm Canon lens, on a SolarQuest solar finder and tracker, certified solar filter.
