Eclipse at your zip code

Copper

80% here, very clear sky, with the glasses it was a nice clean crescent.

The iPhone picture through the glasses is just a big blur

Yeah, I tried that as well.

This was at about 80%.

My photo. I used an IR filter basically as an ND.

Oh that’s nice Aqua!

Here’s what we saw.

I was surprised at how "not dark" it got. Even with 94% totality, it didn't even approach dusk level of darkness.

Yeah, we didn’t get the corona but man it got dark. Lot and stadium lights came on.

By chance I was at Warby Parker about a week ago and they were giving out eclipse glasses, limit 2 per. customer.

They're home on my dresser. I tried to look through the iPhone from here in Siesta Key but that didn't work. When I did a quick (and I mean quick) take eye glance I noticed for just a spilt second there was a chunk missing. But if you were on the beach here and hadn't heard, you would not have suspected a thing. That with no cloud clover.

Posted this in the other thread too.

It's not perfect, but it's still pretty cool.
