Yep i was out salting and the security guard came up to me and showed me the eclipse. This was about 10:15 and it looked almost over, or just starting. Cool thing to see though.

Nah, Just a 4 year old Cannon A85. Just took and set the shutter speed to 3 seconds, then propped it up on a rock on top of the kids playhouse. That is really cool to do with traffic at night. Get some wicked 60's drug induced looking stuff.
