Default Anyone watching the eclipse?

I'm sure enjoying it! I wish I was out in the boonies watching it where the city lights aren't shining. Anyone taking pics? I took a couple, but my camera is not good enough.

I live outside of the city where it is pitch black at night, but Troll Calgary-area sky decided to be clear blue during the day and overcast at night. So no really good sights of it. Bummer.

Naturally there isn't a cloud in the sky today.

It was clear and super bright/gorgeous last night in Burnaby. We were going to drive out to Burnaby Mtn or my wife's office at the Metrotown towers to see it but it was so clear that we just watched from our homes.

It lasted a lot longer than I expected! It eclipsed so fast that I was sure it would remain fully eclipsed for only a few minutes.

We went out to a local park to watch. Our 5 year old was thrilled to stay up so late, and my wife got to try out her new camera (Nikon P900). It was very windy so even with a tripod most of the pictures were more or less blurry. The best ones turned out ok, you can see crater and shadow detail, and the long exposure makes the moon look really red. Good times!
