Solar Eclipse: How to photograph with your iPhone, Galaxy or Pixel

The great Solar Eclipse, when the moon passes briefly between the sun and earth, will be on April 8th this year, and it’s easily going to be a photo highlight for many of us. Just not in the South Bay, or anywhere in California, where it won’t be able to be seen. 

The route starts in Mexico, continues to the San Antonio, Texas area and continues through the middle of the country to the Maine border with Canada. 

Should you be travelling that way, can you get a good shot of the Eclipse with a smartphone? It can be a challenge, but it can be done, and the good news is, there are so many other great shots you can get on 4/8 as well.

I explain all, with a photo tips video for Eclipse fans.
