Can you describe what it was like? What made it so cool?

First there is the experience of watching the darkness descend on you. It's like you can see a wall of it coming at you from a distance.

But viewing the corona of the sun... wow! I cannot begin to describe how cool that is. You don't get to see it in 99% totality. Only when the sun is completely blocked from space. It's remarkable and beautiful and impossible to capture the light on camera and you only get to see if for maybe a couple of minutes in your life.

Seeing it is amazing, some of the photos are better than what you can see with your naked eye.

The feeling though, is very hard to convey. Everyone I was with confirmed that they felt it. Very primal to me. It was clear that my body (and the natural world around me) was unsettled or could tell that something was disrupted.

I'm not a "vibes" person, but for sure this was felt.
