Ruthiebear from Titusville, NJ, United States

Fantastic! It was so cloudy here we only caught slight glimpses. My husband was near Buffalo NY and it got so dark the street lights came on!

10 Apr 2024 1:14pm

@Ruthiebear: Thanks Ruthie. Yes, it is strange how lights come on and also birds stop singing and act like it is night time. Also got noticeably cooler as well.

Steven from Chicagoland, United States

Wow! Superb capture of the solar eclipse! Perfect for the prompt.

It was worth waiting and scanning the sky like your two spectators yesterday.
Well done, it’s a unique show.
Thank you for sharing with us.
around the crown, are these solar flares that we see?
It is fabulous.

@Roger Dekert: Thanks Roger! Yes I believe those were solar flares coming off the sun during the eclipse you can see them in many of the photos that were shared that day.
