Sadly, I'll miss this one, but I was in the middle of Oregon during that total eclipse. Eerie is one way to put it, but I would say it provides somewhat of an existential experience having the moon fully interrupt the light of our star. The birds go quiet, the temperature drops and a twilight surrounds you whilst still being able to see sunlight off in the distance. I spent time using my camera for a moment or two, but really wanted to fully experience it at the same time. It involved a long time without sleep, but I am very happy I made the journey.
