More info here too taking photos of the eclipse seems to be fairly straightforward since the whole thing moves relatively slow. I have some examples in my photostream from the last eclipse too (though we will totally miss this one).

Very exciting. I have two camera bodies now so I can get both close ups and a timelapse type shot. Now to scout out some locations... Even more exciting is that I dont have to stay up till the crack of dawn this time
