It's been a long morning and my fingers are still thawing out from the 30ยบ air, but I wanted to share my best photos from the day so far. I'm going to put together a timelapse of the total progression, but these are some decent stand-alone shots from my Canon T5i and 300mm zoom lens.

And here's my animated gif timelapse of the eclipse visible from Indiana. As the moon got darker, I changed my camera settings, that's why it appears to jump around between darker and lighter - but in general the progression and direction of the Earth's shadow across the moon is evident.
