the next eclipse

there will be a partial solar eclipse on october 23rd. this will require more preperation than a lunar eclipse so shoot.
if you dont have a solar filter for your camera dont tray and shoot it,you can burn out your camera sensor as well ss your eyes if you look at the sun unprotected.
i have a solar filter for my camera lenses so im going to try and shoot it,
i bought mine here
