The total solar eclipse 11-July-2010 in Argentina was not easy-to-catch, because the total phase appeared only 1.5 degree above the horizon and above the usually-cloudy Andes. To increase my chances, I hiked to a hill 400 meters above the lake Lago Argentino. With luck in weather I catched the phenomenon just over the mountains. I put myself into the photo to get a human touch. There was quite a strong wind during the eclipse which made me wish I had a better tripod.
