One of my coworkers brought eclilpse glasses to work so we could all step outside and peer up into the sky. That was my little break for the afternoon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/solar-eclipse#post-1838725 Tue, 22 Aug 2017 23:40:53 +0000 Aziraphale 1838725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ohhhh you are so lucky! How'd it go? We went up to the top of a hill and watched it for an hour and a half &nbsp;-- it was a perfect, cloudless day -- but I think it was only 91% here so the sky didn't go dark or anything. I did get eclipse glasses so we could watch it properly and that was pretty cool. I have now added "witness a total solar eclipse" to my bucket list.</p> <p>Did you get any pictures we can see? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/solar-eclipse#post-1838629 Tue, 22 Aug 2017 15:29:51 +0000 Sara L. 1838629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Texstyle - My understanding is that there are different levels of filters for welding and some are safe for the eclipse. &nbsp;I forgot to ask DH what shade his are, but it was really dark and the sun was not bright when seen through the shield. &nbsp;I only took short glimpses anyway since my whole office shared the welding shield (no one had eclipse glasses).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/solar-eclipse#post-1838562 Tue, 22 Aug 2017 11:43:29 +0000 Eliza 1838562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice opportunity, Anna. How did it go? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/solar-eclipse#post-1838543 Tue, 22 Aug 2017 07:06:42 +0000 Barbara Diane 1838543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you got photos please share. That is a gorgeous spot. We saw it from my parents' driveway- @ 50% maybe-and I really enjoyed seeing it. My brother saw the totality and said it was significantly more interesting. Especially the sudden drop in temperature, the darkness, the corona, etc. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/solar-eclipse#post-1838529 Tue, 22 Aug 2017 04:56:12 +0000 Astrid 1838529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hope you took some great pics! </p> <p>I still remember the total eclipse over Germany in 1999, it was definitely awe-inspiring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/solar-eclipse#post-1838466 Tue, 22 Aug 2017 00:43:26 +0000 rachylou 1838466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>76% here. Not a bad show. Saw the tree crescents. It didn't really get dark. I mean it did, but not in that eerie way. I was watching the newscast on my phone - and the places in totality didn't get dark either. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/solar-eclipse#post-1838463 Tue, 22 Aug 2017 00:27:43 +0000 Staysfit 1838463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We had a 17% eclipse covered by cloud cover! Not much to see but the sky did get dark as though w were going to have a storm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/solar-eclipse#post-1838461 Tue, 22 Aug 2017 00:19:23 +0000 Meredith 1838461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's great, Anna!

We drove until we came out from under the cloud cover and we saw it! (Partial eclipse from our location.) :D</p> <p>It's funny, because we took the first exit after the clouds broke and there was everybody else lined up on the road to the freeway. There were some losers, tho, who were stationed on the hill, where it was so foggy it was raining! Losers! Lol. Why didn't they move on? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/solar-eclipse#post-1838330 Mon, 21 Aug 2017 17:03:10 +0000 Anonymous 1838330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't plan to watch it.

Are you 100% sure these are safe for viewing? I don't really know but better safe, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/solar-eclipse#post-1838280 Mon, 21 Aug 2017 13:29:45 +0000 Sara L. 1838280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hope you get some good pics! &nbsp;It's only going to be about 74% here and it's cloudy right now. &nbsp;I'm hoping the clouds clear up before the eclipse starts. &nbsp;I brought DH's welding shield with me to work so I can take some breaks and view the eclipse. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/solar-eclipse#post-1838149 Mon, 21 Aug 2017 02:12:27 +0000 Aquamarine 1838149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lucky!

My husband ordered special filters for his camera and spotting scope. We tried out the scope yesterday, and I could see three sunspots. I'm taking my little pocket camera to take pictures of the people. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/solar-eclipse#post-1838006 Sun, 20 Aug 2017 14:28:31 +0000 annagybe 1838006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Through a random series of Facebook connections I lucked into a last minute spot on a photography workshop for the eclipse<br /> The group are definitely leaps and bounds above my level, but they seem nice.<br /> Today we are doing rehearsals on the timing<br /> This is Detroit Lake in the Oregon Cascades. Mt Jefferson in the background. That is not a cloud to the right, it's smoke. Unfortunately there are many forest fires nearby, hopefully the wind will be in our favor </p>
