Anyone planning to photograph the Solar Eclipse in 21 August of this year? Here;s a map of where it will be visible.

My Sister and BIL live in Cheyenne, WY so we will probably heard up there and try to catch it in Casper, Wy where it looks like it will be total.

We are planning a road trip through Yellowstone just before the eclipse then dropping south to the eclipse line. We have a hotel booked right on the line in Nebraska but if the weather isn't right we are prepared to go West or East to get clear skies.

I suspect if people wait too long, getting hotel rooms anywhere near the eclipse line will be difficult at best. Fortunately I have a sister we can stay with not too far from the line of totality.

I'm planning on it. The center of its swath is about 40 miles from where I live.
