My favorite solar eclipse photos | It Ain't All About the Weather

Just a few of my favorite photos from April 8, 2024 in this post. Too many to really acknowledge, I know I’m forgetting several. Data in a following post.

Mount Washington — the difference between 99.97% and 100% is stark.

When they say the difference between 99% (99.97% in our case) & totality is the difference between day & night, they weren't joking as I snapped this pic showing the our view just outside the path of totality when the eclipse was at maximum coverage. Still an awesome experience. https://t.co/COVGMfPbfJ

Comparison of 75% to 100% totality from Hunter:

75% totality vs 100% totality:

In the mins leading up to totality I observed persistent thin wave-like shadows propagating along the ground, think they had something to do with abundant cirrus refracting limited sunlight, but truly have no idea. Wish I captured that phenomenon. pic.twitter.com/LdlEIyX4oe
