    Great video! Thanks for sharing. Saw the eclipse in Dallas and got a good sequence of totality and video with the Dwarf 2. The SeeStar lost track, I think, due to clouds about 3 minutes before totality started. Congrats on your upcoming marriage! After 47 years with my lovely bride, I can attest it is worth it. Best wishes and God Bless!

    I watched it from Torreon, Mexico. ....it was awesome. It happens to be my third total solar eclipse (1st July 1991 La Paz, Baja Calif; 2nd Aug 21, 2017 f/South Carolina)... and it gets better everytime. Oh, yes! I still FEEL and CRY everytime I see all these nice pictures and videos, the *SHADOW* the *Diamond RIng* also *shadow bands* of course the *Corona* and the 360 *"Sunset"*. I am so glad the skies cleared and that you had a chance to see it. Cheers! Clear skies!

    Glad you didn't get clouded out. I was maybe a little too motivated to ensure I had completely clear skies, so I drove from Texas to Maine. Totally worth it.
    Spain in 2026 could be a good one, although I think it will be towards sunset. (Which could be cool.) If there's one to really aspire to see it's 2027 in Egypt. Also, Australia in 2028 should be a really good one. Both very long and over areas that are pretty clear.
    Could make for an interesting astro travel video!

      That's a long trip! I'm sure it was worth the drive. Hopefully i can get some sort of funding in place to make it possible to go to Spain or Egypt or Australia in those years! I'd love to stream it again!
