Solar Eclipse today

Hope lot of you got to see the Solar eclipse today.  Although it wasn't a Total eclipse here in Northern California, it was still very cool to see.  Since we cant see it directly  through our eyes, we need a little help to be able to actually see the eclipse.  When I was a kid, we watched one with two tiny holes in a cardboard.  But this time, we got a Welders helmet (with a solar panel to power up the dimmer) and watching the eclipse through it was really cool.

I took this picture with a macro lens looking through the welders helmet.  The first one was probably 6-8 minutes before the total eclipse and the next one is almost around the time.

Did you know that where you experience Total eclipse, the temperature might drop almost 20degrees!
