A composite of 12 exposures of the August 21, 2017 total eclipse of the Sun, from 1/1600 sec to 1 second, stacked as a smart object and combined using the Mean stack mode to blend the images. Several High Pass filter layers were added to sharpen and increase the contrast in the coronal structures.

All taken through the 106mm Astro-Physics Traveler refractor with a 0.85x reducer/flattener, yielding f/5 at 500mm focal length, wide enough to capture Regulus at left. All with the Canon 6D MkII camera at ISO 100.

Shot from a site in the Teton Valley, Idaho, north of Driggs.
