I was able to get a picture through a telescope my university's astronomy club had set up.

Fuji xt3 and the kit lens i used an ND filter hoping it won’t blow up my sensor.

Pretty cloudy where I am and not in the path of totality so I wasn't expecting much but I did manage to get a glimpse of it with a notch on the pin hole paper/bristle board combo. Can't wait for next year where I would be much closer to totality

The cloud cover actually worked in my favor today.
