That's cool as shit. Do you have any shots of the surrounding area? Or if you don't want to share those, was it like dusk?

Unfortunately I didn't think of getting shots of the surrounding area. It was like dusk.

I watched it at work through a welding helmet lens. It looked pretty cool.

You could barely tell anything happened in Houston. The temperature dropped like half a degree, that was it.

Same. I avoided pointing my eyes to the sky, since the sun was near the middle of it. This resulted in a lot of uncertainty. But I used a ghetto pin-hole projector to see a tiny bit of eclipse and kept track of the different phases. That was my first time ever doing that, so I guess it was a unique enough experience for me.
I felt this as well, and at this moment the sun was still shining but the light was duller. I guess that was supposed to be the pivotal phase for my area.

I'd seen a partial eclipse long ago, and while it was cool, it wasn't mind-blowing. Seeing totality? THAT was mind-blowing. I don't thinkI've ever felt such an overwhelming sense of awe in my life.
A++, would view again, will travel to Dallas for in 2024.
The only downside is the traffic headed home. it's taken me seven hours to go 200 miles, and I'm nowhere near home. I'll probably have to sleep at a rest stop for a while, and will get home much later than I planned on. The cats are sure to be displeased, and demand food the moment I stagger in the door.

My house is literally right on the path, so it was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. Saw a partial eclipse many years ago and this blew it away. I had darkness for 2 minutes and 20 seconds. I could see Venus and Sirius. Friggin' awesome, I was speechless.

Not total, but I had free eclipse glasses, so me (and the rest of my family, who bought pairs) went to the beach to see it. It was pretty darn cool. Best part was how the temperature dropped considerably.

I only got to see 75%. It was okay.

Apparently everyone but me was able to see the eclipse. I'm glad people took pictures!

Yes and no. Sometime after 50% the landscape grew considerably darker prior to totality, but the sky didn't start to darken until near totality. So it was a really surreal feeling to have dark surroundings on a otherwise sunny day.

Image taken on iPhone through lens of eclipse glasses. It got to about 80% coverage here - the sky wasn't particularly dark; it looked more hazy than anything - like a smoky autumn day - not dark enough to see stars.

The last time there was some kind of solar eclipse in my country, it was a cloudy day and I guess that it wasn't even a total one.
