How did you choose that location in Tennessee, your setup?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dave Krugman:<\/strong> I noticed online in the weeks before the eclipse that people were sharing a lot about previous experiences \u2014 how powerful they were, how it felt like a once-in-a-lifetime experience. As a photographer, I felt called to go travel and document the experience, to see for myself what that rare moment was all about.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Adorama:<\/strong> One of the most common questions we get from our readers is about what equipment pros use. Can you tell us about the gear it took to get this photo?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Krugman:<\/strong> I originally planned to shoot on a tripod with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/iso70200gm.html\">70-200mm f\/2.8<\/a> on my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/isoa7r2.html\">Sony Alpha A7RII<\/a>. But I noticed that the tripod was limiting my movement and that 200 wasn&#8217;t long enough, so I quickly switched to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/iso100400e.html\">100-400 lens<\/a> and fired off a few handheld shots. I manually focused to ensure that everything was sharp, and kept my shutter speed extremely fast to negate any camera shake.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_47720\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-47720\" style=\"width: 1068px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-47720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/@dave.krugman-05893-1.jpg\" alt=\"eclipse photo dave krugman\" width=\"1068\" height=\"712\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/@dave.krugman-05893-1.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/@dave.krugman-05893-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/@dave.krugman-05893-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1068px) 100vw, 1068px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-47720\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Another photo taken during the photoshoot.

I also set a timer for the exact window of totality so I knew exactly how much time I had left. I took practice shots during the partial eclipse to make sure my exposure and settings were on point.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Adorama:&nbsp;<\/strong>What set this photo apart from the many others you took during that session? How did you approach it in post?&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Krugman:<\/strong> I chose to post this photo because it was just after totality ended. The light began to bleed around the moon, in these crazy circle flares, and it almost made the eclipse look like some giant orb in motion. There was something unique to me about that shot \u2014 it wasn&#8217;t the typical full totality everyone else was sharing, so I chose that image to stand out from the crowd. In post, I decided to warm it up a bit, since the sun usually looks more glowing. The eclipse had a blue hue and I chose the warmer edits because that is the tone that spoke to me in those special moments looking up to the heavens.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_47721\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-47721\" style=\"width: 1068px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-47721 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/@dave.krugman-05889-1.jpg\" alt=\"eclipse photo dave krugman\" width=\"1068\" height=\"1335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/@dave.krugman-05889-1.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/@dave.krugman-05889-1-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/@dave.krugman-05889-1-819x1024.jpg 819w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1068px) 100vw, 1068px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-47721\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Another photo taken during the photoshoot.
