Very cool Nancy!
Thanks, Carolyn!
It’s so cool that you can see that! 🙂 Here in Vancouver we barely got any of it, just a crescent moon :O
Thanks, Andy. It was fun. We went to my mother-in-law’s house and ate lunch in her driveway while sharing a pair of eclipse glasses. Good food, good company, and cool viewings. It was a great time. 🙂
A perfect moment indeed! 🙂
Very cool! How did you take your picture “as seen through eclipse glasses?”
I had a dark filter on my lens, then my husband held the glasses up to the lens and covered the exposed parts of the lens with his fingers. I was able to position the camera and manually focus it. It was quite the production. 🙂
That is so cool. Laughing, i can picture the scene from your description. Sounds like your cooperative venture was fun — plus you got some cool pics
It was quite the production. 🙂 Thanks!
That’s a good shot. I’m working today, so all I had was my phone. Tried a couple of shots, but didn’t turn out. Oh well. 😃
There’s always 2024 in Texas (I hear). Or the next full one is in 28 years. I’ll be 79, but I hope I’ll be able to see it. Our moms are 85 and 84 and they both watched today. 🙂
That’s great. I have a 92 year old pt that saw one in the ’30’s and got to see this one today. Pretty cool. I heard the next will track in the opposite direction, and Indy will be in the path. That’s only about two hours north of us. May have to go up for that one. 😃
🙂 There’s one in 2024 that tracks from Texas to Maine.
Oh, I know. Totality track is only an hour north of us for that one. May have to try and check it out.
We were in the direct path for 100%. About halfway through this HUGE cloud came and covered everything. Sigh… Oh, well, at least we saw half of it!
A smiley sun!!
😀
Nice shot 😀 , looks like the sky is smiling tho…lol
I thought that, too! Thanks, Ruby!
What a fabulous capture, well done – unfortunately for us it was raining where we were.😕
That’s too bad! There’s another eclipse in 2024 that starts in Texas and moves northeast. Maybe then…? Thanks!
Maybe… certainly sounds like a good excuse to visit Texas!😄
I’m in awe!!
