Nikon D850 with 500mm Reflex and full aperture Celestron solar filter

Post-processing Details:

None

Image Details:

This was made near the end of totality to reveal the prominences along the limb. I am pleased with this image as it is extremely difficult to focus the mirror lens I used. The manual focus ring is extremely sensitive, and touching it causes so much image shake that it took much experimentation to get zeroed in, plus temperature changes will affect focus. So far, I haven't seen any images online that are more detailed than this one.
