It's not the winning, it's the taking part

I knew that I didn't have the right equipment to get a good shot of the eclipse but I was prepared to try.

I had to be in town for a hair appointment so couldn't hide away at home to try this out.  

As with the eclipse, I count this as a partial not a total success.

Plus all the technologies seem to be against me! Even uploading to blip was unusually problematic.
