Total Solar Eclipse 2026 🌑☀️📸
I have just arrived in Spain to photograph the unique events with Total Solar Eclipse and the Perseids Meteor shower. ☀️🌌☄️
I have been looking forward to this trip for over a year and I am super excited to do this project together with Fernando Marmolejo David Cachon MTB and Marianne villadsen | Inspiration til naturoplevelser. 📸
I am looking so much forward to capture some unique photos and to enjoy this memorable experience! ✨
Last time I saw a partial solar eclipse was in 2022 in Denmark together with my fellow OM System Ambassadors Julia // All things outdoors🇨🇭 Fotograf Rania Rönntoft and Louise Åvall.😊
🌑 Photographing a solar eclipse? Here are 6 quick tips 📸
1. Use a solar filter ☀️
Always use a certified solar filter during the partial phases. Remove it only during totality – and put it back immediately afterwards.
2. Think about focal length 🔭
400mm+ is great for capturing the corona and prominences. Wider lenses can create amazing landscape shots with the eclipse in the scene.
3. Use manual focus 🎯
Focus on the sun beforehand and switch to manual focus. Autofocus can struggle when the light changes.
4. Bracket your exposures 📸
During totality, things happen fast. Shoot a range of exposures so you can capture everything from the bright corona to the darker details.
5. Look beyond the sun 🌄
Add a person, landscape, mountain or building to create a stronger image and tell a story.
6. Don’t forget to experience it ❤️
The camera can wait. Look up, take it all in and enjoy the moment. Totality is incredibly short – and truly magical.
Save this for eclipse day & share it with your fellow eclipse chasers! 🌑
