Some Amateur Photos of the April 8, 2024 Eclipse. · 2:20am April 9th
I can't believe 2017 was seven years ago now. Boy, time zips away fast.
That year, my locale only got a partial eclipse, but it was still pretty interesting. I got to see the real deal this year, though.
I just used a regular Google Pixel 2 to take these, and it was kind of hard to figure out the right way to get a good picture of the eclipse.
This was my best one:
There's also this, and a few others I won't clog this post with:
It was pretty weird. There weren't many changes happening outside at first, except for the Sun being slowly covered by the moon.
(These were taken through my eclipse glasses, sorry.
I took a bunch more of all of the different phases, but I have to go through a lot to get my own pictures on here.)
As totality approached, though, it started getting darker, and it even got a bit chilly outside. Once it was within about a minute of reaching the point where it covered up the biggest part of the sun, it suddenly just got darker faster and faster. Then, totality was reached, and it was awesome. I feel really bad for anyone who had to deal with cloud cover. I hope this blog post helps, if only just a little bit.

Oh, and seeing as I can't seem to post anything on this site without linking music in somehow, here's a combo from ELO that was actually released as the two sides of a 7 in. single in 1975. Nightrider's my favorite ELO song, and the two songs together always make me think of the Princesses of Equeatria.

Not amateur at all, that first one is totally beautiful! Wish I could've seen it, but I did feel that sudden chill. It was soon weird,everything got dim around the clouds, but I knew I had missed this unique phenomenon.

The picture quality could have possibly been even better, but I had to take a screenshot of the photo once I got it onto my computer. The way I upload my own photos on this site takes too many steps, but at least it works.

I know, the site could be more photo friendly.
Still, they look really good! I love how the phases just shifted, each one is so pretty!
