Haven't had the time to do proper editing, but here is a timelapse sequence of the last 3 minutes before totality, and a few mins after. Also a shot of the eclipsed sun, but not sure if Tapatalk limitations give the inage enough resolution for you all to zoom in and see the moon obscuring the sun. Sent from my SM-A326U1 using Tapatalk We had similar cirrus clouds in Poplar Bluff which I think diminished some of the view of corona. Skies were clearer in 2017 and I seem to remember the corona being larger and more striking. Still an amazing experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lego Lass Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 It was totality or bust for us…fought traffic both ways to get out to Mount Vernon, IL. The moment that it's safe to remove eclipse glasses, you could actually hear the crowd gasp in amazement (and then the crickets and frogs took over). A truly breathtaking and awe inspiring event, and luckily my second time experiencing it (other was in my backyard in 2017). Didn't bother with photos, as there are folks much more talented than I am in that department. Certainly an experience that makes you ponder your place in the universe (I love the description of feeling "paper thin and whole at the same time", which perfectly encapsulates it!) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Raichu Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 In 2017, we let the kids skip school so we could drive a couple of hours for slightly deeper darkness. I remember it was dark and eerily quiet. We did not do anything special yesterday. The kids just viewed 85% at school with their friends 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Here's a collage I just did. My photoshop skills are a bit rusty. The corona is actually more pronounced in my picture than I remember. I over exposed a bit as the bright red prominence that I so remember seeing projecting out from the bottom of the sun (looked like a little campfire) is unfortunately washed out. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
