Had to create a tiny config file on Windows, and thought it would be so much easier on Linux.

Today's eclipse, near-peak, at home (near San Francisco.)
EOS M3, two polarizing filters, with the pop-out screen at 90 degrees.
Straight from camera JPG and cropped/adjusted raw. Because of the lens flare, could not get a shot at 300mm, but this wasn't bad for thrown together quickly.
