Total Solar Eclipse 2026 in Spain: How to Photograph It Step by Step

On August 12, 2026, Spain will experience a historic total solar eclipse. And if you want to photograph it correctly, you need more than just enthusiasm: you need planning, technique, and safety. In this episode, I explain how to photograph the eclipse step by step, both during the partial phase and at the most spectacular moment: totality. We will discuss: How to photograph the partial phase with an approved solar filter What to do exactly at the moment of totality How to remove and replace the filter without putting your equipment at risk Recommended settings and how to prepare your camera in advance Using bracketing to capture the full dynamic range of the solar corona How to integrate the eclipse into the landscape Tips for avoiding mistakes during the most critical minutes Totality lasts very briefly... and there are no second chances. Good preparation will make the difference between improvising and capturing a memorable image. OTHER CHAPTERS IN THIS SERIES: 1.
