90% here, and we did it the indirect way.

Even only 90% was eerie. It got cold, the light got yellow/orange, and I got a little weirded out.

I didn’t really know what to expect. I wish I would have practiced some low light condition photos, and used my camera and tripod.

We had over 2 minutes of totality and it probably ruined any future partial eclipse.

Even though these pics look much lighter than it is, it was totally blocked here and we did see 2 of the planets.

we were fortunate to live in the path of totality. Enjoyed the show but did not have the glasses or a welding helmet, did take a glance when totality hit though.
the transition to darkness was quick and only lasted a couple of minutes.
