I'm watching it via the Internet from Oslo, Norway because it is very cloudy here.

I thought my wife looked strange last night

Not looked strange but 'acted strangely' Owoooooo!!!! :D

Periodically at commercials, I took a break from watching the Red Sox Series clincher game (I take back all bad I ever said about them :o ) and took some pictures of the eclipse from about midway, on to the full eclipse. I didn't stay up long enough to catch the other side. I also need to install my copy of Photoshop Elements so I can dim the intense brightness of the lit portions of the moon a bit before I post some shots. When I do I'll post one in this thread just for you 'cloudy guys' ;) . Also once I do, we should be able to see the man on the moon's face quite well. :cool:

My digital stills camera takes nice shots but it doesn't have enough manual settings as a regular 35mm would so I could not get any shots of the full eclipse. In order for the camera to focus, it needs to 'see' the moon, so there needed to be an illuminated portion of it, thus the extreme contrasts I experienced. But anyway, I did manage to get several shots that, with work, will look quite nice. :)

I hope that word "WITH WORK" is honourable ;) :D . wonder what is on the other side of an eclipse! :)
