Eclipse Day 2017 21 August, 2017 This isn't an official Eternity thread or anything, I just wanted to talk about the eclipse, and show off the cool things myself and my friends saw during the eclipse, and hopefully hear stories of the eclipse experience from other people. I know not everyone was in the US to have a chance of seeing this wonderful event, and even fewer were in full totality, so hopefully someone will enjoy this discussion. I'll start off with my own experience. The entire...thing is so much different being there in person to see the sun become covered by the moon, and then to view the brilliant white solar corona in the sky as it rungs the shadow of the moon. You can see pictures, you can understand the phenomena, but without being there you really can't appreciate the brilliance and majesty. It honestly looks like you can see the eye of God in the sky above you (and the toenail, too). I took the video and photos from my eclipse outing and put them into a single video montage, complete with Sal's (my wife and camerawoman) narration. The locusts started up around 2:39pm (or about the 6 minute mark in the video); the darkness descended enough that it started to look like twilight, right before night. To fully appreciate some of it, I recommend watching full screen in 1080p. Some of the phenomena (especially the shadow bands) show up better. Please, I'd lose to see your own photos and video, and read your own stories from the day - whether or not you participated. |
