Was pretty cool! I left the office to share the experience with my wife as we watched it from our backyard.

Our daughter lives in Emerald Sound in Oak Point, she sent a similar picture to us this afternoon. Pretty cool.

Very cool seeing it again - I remember the last one in 2017. Chances are pretty good that I won’t see the next one.

I slapped on a 500 mm lens and took a few shots in the totality zone.
I've seen a lot of amazing natural phenomenon but this takes the cake.

I had a great experience with the total eclipse earlier this afternoon outside my work along with my clients and my wife and my daughter. Memorable moment.

Relly cool experience, did anyone notice that it got noticeably cooler for a few minutes during the event?

We all noted how the temperature dropped. We saw the thermometer drop 6 degrees in about 25 minutes and it also felt cooler because of the lack of sunlight. I also thought the wind increased, but that might have been an illusion with the dropping temps.

Enhanced Corona, HDR eclipse shot. 10 exposures of differing lengths. The moon is real, a two second exposure blended in (showing the earth shine). Meade 130mm APO telescope and Nikon D850 camera.
