Cropped to 1600 pixels wide, then resized to 800 during save to JPG. Since I shot full-manual, I had to do a lot of fixing in post-processing for most/all of the shots I got (dynamic ranges, contrast, noise reduction, sharpness). No color adjustments.

Intermittent cloud cover (and the late hour) really limited my ability to capture any good shots, but that seemed par for the course for many folks trying to capture images of the eclipse this year (without a telescope, that is). I kind of like my grainy high-ISO shots at the end of the series. They remind me of some grainy NASA shots of far away planets, asteroids, or galaxies.
