Well this was the best of 4 eclipses I have witnessed. Amazing temperature drop at 2500m (8,130 ft) and the extra altitude gave a feeling of excellent clarity for viewing the corona. I am still on our long road trip through the US and Canada and don't have the gear and software to process my RAW's. The attached is an overcooked stack of 7 jpeg shots to bring out the coronal streamers and field lines. Hope to do better when I get home with the RAWs.

Re: Solar Eclipse Casper Mountain Wyoming.
The look of this reminds me of the famous photographer, Ansel Adams. If he were to photograph an eclipse, it would almost look like this.
