Had the glasses on while the Moon moved into position. Saw the sliver get smaller and smaller until the glasses blocked everything out. Took off my glasses so I could see the actual eclipse and it was incredible. Black ball with a shining, white ring. Yeah, eclipses happen every couple of years, but not where I can see them. This was amazing. Were you in the direct path? I was supposedly supposed to get a little over 80% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was interesting especially the dimming and slight cool feeling, but I will have to travel for the one in 7 years to get the full effect.

I bare-eyed it and have been feeling fine apart from the occasional blink-disc things, but when I rub my eyes they mostly go away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably travel about an hour to get a longer full eclipse time. As it is, i'm near the edge so it only lasts about a minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
