Sun viewed through eclipse glasses
Sun viewed through eclipse glasses on Flickr.
Of the various ways I looked at the solar eclipse, my favorite was a set of “eclipse glasses” made from exposed photographic film. Everything else felt like I was looking at a picture of the sun, rather than watching something here and how, except for this and the welding helmet. And the welding helmet turned everything green.
After looking at the sun for a few seconds through the glasses, I stuck one in front of the camera and took this shot.

Shotwell is getting more annoying all the time. For example: it assumes you're importing from a pure camera, so if you plug in, say, a smartphone, it offers to import every single image on the device. Including your web browser cache. That's helpful.
But the latest: It strips out timezone data?!?! I uploaded a whole batch of eclipse photos dated tomorrow. At least Flickr lets me fix it with two clicks for the whole set.
