My Canon sun filter got burned by the sun.

I had not tested my Canon sun filter for the Bazooka before the eclipse. I should have. Since it fits at the back of the lens, the sun simply burned through it. I used an old iPhone 6 with a single lens to photograph the eclipse through the eyepiece of my telescope. I didn’t have time to mess with putting a camera on the telescope, plus people wanted to look through the telescope because the clarity was amazing.

Since I had to move the iPhone around on the eyepiece for each photo, the GIF is a bit jumpy.

The color of the sun becomes whiter as the eclipse advances because the phone’s camera overexposed the sun because of the dark side of the moon.
