The photographer took the image with his Nikon D810 camera body and Sigma 50mm f/1.4 lens. He shot the image at f/4 and ISO 200, bracketing 16 shots taken from 2 seconds to 1/8000 second, all taken with a few seconds of each other.

“The eclipse was amazing, and no words do it justice, neither does this photo.”
