Cool idea

Yes, sunny and bright. I hope it enthuses and makes happy many, many people!

Super excited! I have a calendar reminder set for August 12, 2045, which is when one will be directly crossing where I live.

... Of course, whether or not I'm still using that calendar in 2045 is of relevant concern.

I've never seen anything else like it!

I'm going to miss this one, even though my sister lives near it. But I caught the last one in Wyoming.

AZ will miss it by......that much.

Once I was finishing up the top right corner, I realized what it was ^_^

Our viewing glasses just arrived today.

Even If you don't live along the line of totality, you can still SAFELY appreciate the partial eclipse using a pinhole camera, approved solar glasses, or just look at the weird shadows cast on the ground through the trees.

Last solar eclipse, I was so thrilled with my little pinhole viewer that I'd made. And then someone pointed out the crescent-shaped spots of light beneath the trees, and I was enchanted. Nature's pinhole viewer!

A colander is pretty trippy too.

Brian, how do you use a colander???

The holes in the colander act like hundreds of pinhole cameras casting lunulate shaped projections onto the ground.

I'm ready to see one again.
