The eclipse was awesome!!!!


We went to my friend Jon's sister's house - which sounds way complicated,  but it was a great time.  I was surprised how emotional the moment was when the sun was completely covered by the moon and the corona of the sun was visible with a few bright spots where there edge of the moon has a crater.  

I wish I had a picture of the corona, but the moment was pretty fast and I was surprised how visible it was and I doubted I could capture that with my iphone camera.  I could see in that moment Mercury near the sun, Venus brightly off to the left and another planet to the right of the sun.
