Eclipse was interesting

But not as nice as totality would have been.

Pity we weren't in the zone of totality, but even with what we got there were some interesting effects.

I was in the Albertson's parking lot and looking at the trees and hedge they started looking weirder and weirder. Probably because we were still getting full spectrum light, but it was a lot dimmer than normal.

Colors looked "off" and the the light looked "wrong". I can see why that used to spook people.

I made a point of going out to look because *last* time (1979) it was overcast and you couldn't see anything...
