Ted Hesser with Tommy Van Smith and Martina Tibell at Smith Rock State Park. Terrebonne, OR.
Best view in the house... it took 4 days of planning and hard work to capture this shot. My girlfriend @martinatib and good friend @thistommysmith climbed the route twice, in scorching heat, to nail the positioning. But we nailed it!

(2,396 posts)In my PDX neighborhood it just got kind of cold and the sky was still relatively bright even though the sun was covered up almost all the way.
Viewing these photos has given me that extra excitement that I missed out on by not being able to see the totality.
These are National Geographic worthy IMO.

Some of the coolest were of the crescents on a sheet of paper under trees. Several of the people with me thought that was just too neat.
My husband got shots of the moon shadow moving across the clouds and landscape. He hiked up a hill to get those.
We viewed the eclipse from the grounds of the John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, North Carolina, along with family and a lot of other people.
