Been going out every 5 or so minutes. Temps are dropping fast here. Pretty cool to see though.

Beautiful photos, Kurt.

I took a series using my Samsung Galaxy S8 phone camera at the eyepiece of an 8" Dobsonian telescope. Didn't get much color here due to ice crystals in the sky.

Last one for me was May, 1975.
This one did not disappoint here in Georgia. Cold, clear and brighter stars as the full eclipse occurred.

Nice pics! Joey, I wondered why it wasn't more red here in Minneapolis. Ice crystals!

I've seen summer eclipses here in Minnesoooota that were spectacularly red. But last night was quite subdued color-wise.

I saw video of the impact. It's really amazing that it happened during the eclipse.
