No moon over here, something's blocking it.

We saw the ISS. Cool! It was backlit perfectly by the sun.
:edit: well it must have just been a satellite we saw.

It was cloudy earlier but we have a clear view now. Makes me wonder if I'll be around to see the next one in 2033.

Took the first 3 with a Canon SX400 IS, it's brand new and I'm not much of a photographer, did the best I could with it.
The last picture will be in reference to what it looked like to my iPhone 5S LOL

Big difference! Thanks for the pictures! I was only able to see it on livestream as it was cloudy here.
Cool. Thanks for the pictures. I only was able to see the first part of it until the clouds rolled in.

That is a Blue Moon (sort of). Obviously your Nanci Griffith knowledge is minimal. lol.

My 16 year old daughter went out to a watch party, but I was in a data center from 9pm to 1am US/Central. Tried to catch some on-line as it was cloudy here anyway.
No one else in our home seemed interested.

Hope everyone is going out to enjoy the eclipse if you can.
Not many of today's youth appear to be interested in such things.
I'd like to offer a alternative way of looking at it. It is a shared event that many humans over the eons have experienced. Two hundred thousand years ago, our ancestors wandered the plains of Africa, spears in hand and looked up to the same type of event. I kind of think it is humbling. JMO.

Couldn't see it last night; it rained.
It was beautiful my wife and two youngest were interested. My oldest and his girlfriend could care less and drove away during the eclipse.

No doubt he was interested, but it was the female anatomy he was interested in.
