using darkest sunglasses i have helps, also have clouds on the horizon allowing me a good view.

beginning to lose it as the sun sets and trees on the horizon cover it.
 
Not a "lunar eclips"(e). It's an annular SOLAR eclipse.

Still, nobody should look at it. I did, through some pretty thick clouds. It was a lot darker than it was yesterday at the same time and with about the same cloud cover.

The total solar eclipse way back in the 1980s would have been visible from the ground here near Seattle, but there as well, the clouds didn't cooperate.

Oh well...
 
Just saw it here, welding helmet worked perfectly, weather was perfect, eclipse was perfect.

#10 welding lens here. Still gots the blue spots after an hour. lol We didn't get the full "lunar ring" because the sun dropped below the moon's path when it all centered up. Oh well, still pretty cool.

Sorry, "Annular Ring"
 
after seeing several pics from this. Is this where Pink Floyd came up the name for the album "Dark side of the Moon"?
