This isn't a trip report, per se. I did this from my own back yard here in north-central Nevada.
Well, though cloudy, the "Ring of Fire" solar eclipse did not disappoint here in north-central Nevada. When the eclipse first started, conditions were light sprinkles and gloomy. But as peak eclipse approached, enough gaps formed in the clouds to allow for great views.
All images taken with a Kodak PixPro FZ152 digital camera w/15x optical zoom. One image was taken using a shade 12 grade welding hood replacement lens (the one that looks yellow), the rest without.
