Comment on After 30 years, I'm finally going to see a total solar eclipse. Also, Potato World is a thing.

So, How was it? Did it live up to your expectations? Did you get any good pictures?

Pictures turned out ok! I should have done a dry run for my totality setup, as I wanted to do some bracketed exposures and assumed my DSLR would let me do that the same way in live display mode as it does in optical viewfinder mode, and it… didn’t. But the pictures I did get are a reasonable, if insufficient facsimile of the experience.
As for the real deal… I’ll have to update everyone once I’ve processed it. It was clear as crystal, and a perfect day. I was totally unprepared in every way that mattered. I don’t yet have words.

Sounds like it was enjoyable. My son’s mother took him out of school and drove them 2.5 hours to go see it in totality.

That seems like a lot of work for potato world.
