This is cropped in a ways, the 16x9 version is on my Pixelfed page.

NGL I love how this came out

I captured this with my Lumix G9 with my 100-300mm lens (at 300mm) with a 1 second shutter speed.

I feel you friend

I had the same problem with a solar eclipse that happened recently. I drive about 800 miles and then slept through it.

Oh man, that's so much worse! I'm so sorry!

My brother needed to only drive 15 min from his house to see the full eclipse last year, which I kept repeatedly telling him, but he figured he'd "see enough of it" at his place. It wasn't the same at all.

There's always an xkcd. After seeing the one in 2017, I could not believe how many people would not listen to me about how much they needed to be there for the 2024 one. "Yeah, i can see 90% at my house. It'll be close enough". No!!! No it won't!
