That was a full blown religious experience. In 2017, we were at the same soccer complex in Carbondale we were at today. It was very cloudy that day, and we really couldn’t see it very well. I was so disappointed. Then the weather forecast kept saying it was going to be cloudy today too and I was so upset. But there were no clouds today as we laid in the grass with pillows under our heads, and I got to see it in all its glory this time. Videos and pictures will never do it justice. Those pics and videos look NOTHING like the real thing. It was like a big black hole with a halo of beautiful white rays against a light purple gray background faintly dotted with stars. Jupiter to the left and Venus to the right. There was even a red blip of plasma we could see at the edges. The temps dropped and the lighting changed to an odd indoor lightbulb vibe. The street lights came on. The birds settled down. The crickets chirped. And we all caught our breath at the same time when totality came. For 4 whole minutes, we yelled, gasped, and cheered at this phenomenon most of us will never see again. And when that point of light that burst out when totality was over, known as the “diamond ring”, we all cried out together. I can’t explain how it FELT. You had this feeling like you just took part in something hugely significant that you don’t understand. Weird,surreal, and AMAZING!

Your comment was so poetic. I wish I could have seen it.

My description of the is the same as you but the edges of the moon were gradiently white and there was a red apparental "pixel" at the bottom right of the eclipse, with the thinnest clouds ever giving it a smoke-like glow and the corona was so damn short

I saw it in the Dallas area today. This is THE most amazing natural phenomena in existence. If Betelgeuse goes supernova, that might be just as cool.

My son traveled to Carbondale from Seattle to see the solar eclipse in totality. I’m thrilled that he was able to add that to memory bank of life experiences! He said the traffic afterwards was challenging.

Put the phones down and actually watch the eclipse. 🤦🏼‍♂

we gotta capture the moment and watch it in the future

Those were my thoughts. The last thing I was interested in was my phone. There would be plenty of replays of much better quality than any footage I captured anyway. I'd rather take the awesome sight in with my own eyes instead of the screen of my phone.

We were watching the eclipse, but we were also taking photos for memories. It was great. It's like taking a hike at nature, you take photos because you might not ever see it again. So you want a memory of it before you die

@@yourlocalchannel6904You can see an eclipse in any book. You only have one chance, for about 3 minutes, to see it with your own eyes. Plus, the pictures on the phone usually look bad

If we ever get advance notice that an asteroid the size of Alaska is going to impact the earth, there will indeed be people recording our mass extinction with their phone...guaranteed.
