I made this today, after seeing the eclipse through my eclipse glasses.

I don't often literally laugh out loud at an online pic, but this is such over-the-top numisgeekery that I couldn't help.

I don't think I'm the only lunatic here.
I just made this "Nicklipse" in case you sleep through the real event.

TheNickelGuy - you have way too much time on your hands. You should take up a hobby like coin collecting -

Our eclipse out here in PA was 78% and has just peaked as clouds came in just in time to really make it a bust. Good thing for TV. The people in the direct path get a completely different experience.

I am always entertained. I bet there's hardly a coin collector who can say they get bored.
I feel sorry for the dull people out there. It must be awful. LOL

I was able to get a few pictures using #14 welders glass over my cheap camera lens. And the leaves of the tree made little eclipses all over the sidewalk.
