It's lovely. We watched from our backyard. And I know my strength is not photography, so thanks for this.

It's hard to describe "it looks like non-directional sunset but there's a deeply uncool eye in the sky."

It definitely looked like it had no chill.

You can even see the red perturbation at lower left. Nice. How did you take the picture?

This is kind of funny because it was in the lower left where I viewed the eclipse

It's a solar prominence. One of the big loopy bois on the Sun's surface.

Lovely photo! Where were you located? How crowded was it?

[-] Wogi@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

I have a few very similar photos. I was in Cape Girardeau Illinois.

To give you an idea of how crowded it was, the hour long drive down there took us two hours not including half an hour to stop and use the bathroom. 29 minutes of which was standing in line to use the bathroom.

The drive back took 3 hours. We detoured up to Columbia instead of going in to St Louis before heading home. My friends went straight to St Louis.

It took them closer to 5 hours.

Lol

Cape Girardeau, Missouri.

Did you go to one of the big parks? Any areas around the main 5-6 city parks was a shitshow, I drove by them after the eclipse to charge and noped out of there real fast

Most of the locals went to community parks like Kiwanis, Twin Trees park, or the Trail of Tears

I went to a truck stop before I even got to the city. There was a big grassy hill behind a gas station and maybe 500 people hanging out in the area.

I saw some pretty dope clouds that day!

Jk… they weren’t even dope… it was just an overcast day ;-;

Save your pics for Web before uploading. Maybe link the full quality file.
