Solar eclipse to plunge UK and Europe into darkness - Polidicks

Skies clear here but it's not even dark. I don't understand

Well these clouds ruined it.

not even close to dark 0/10 :(

[QUOTE=Killuah;47360242]Guys you can use 2 burnable CDs to look through, place them over each other.[/QUOTE] We had some experts go out and warn against exactly that here yesterday. So yeah I wouldn't try this.

Too many god damn clouds. You can't see any shape. It only went slightly dark.

[QUOTE=Fofilolipop;47360159]It's cloudy as fuck here but you can actually see it trough them, amazing.[/QUOTE] Had those aswell half an hour ago, now it's just rainy dark clouds... ;-;

[QUOTE=Scot;47360375]this woman could have used that advice [img]http://i.imgur.com/2hBeXeS.jpg[/img][/QUOTE] So many people are going to have permanent damage to their vision today.

Despite the fact that the sky is completely clear here, it kind of feels like as if it were late afternoon. At the very least I can easily tell that my dorm's interior is unusually dark.

[QUOTE=UberMunchkin;47360378]I got a good picture with my phone but the immediate post processing my phone does ruined it :([/QUOTE] This is the best one I managed to get. [img]http://i.imgur.com/1O4ZaVC.jpg[/img] The cloud cover was actually perfect, could see it really clearly with no retina scars.

It's only partial here but the skies are totally clear so I have to use a piece of arc welding glass. Gives a very strange atmosphere though. [img]http://i.imgur.com/hMpKJc1.jpg[/img]

Wasn't too bad, the cloud cover was at such a level that you could view it with a digital camera (rotated LCD screen on the side) fairly easily.

Totality in Svalbard! [IMG]http://i.gyazo.com/fd090de6e87a22dbd14d5b28a9bbc7d2.png[/IMG]

It was a bit cloudy but got some cool views with a welder mask nontheless

Welp, just as the eclipse was supposed to become at its fullest where i live, and clouds just came and blocked it off. At least i got my sight properly back now after staring into it though

rip everyone's eyes

[QUOTE=Headhumpy;47360032]What a fucking surprise, it's overcast here.[/QUOTE] What, we can't even view shit from Singapore

[QUOTE=Xyrec;47360432]rip everyone's eyes[/QUOTE] I'll rather risk my phones camera than my eyes. Btw too cloudy as well?

The fucking suns come out now, fucking typical UK

well that was underwhelming it got a little dimmer, but that might as well have been the clouds

Well it got darker, but the sun was still doing sun stuff and was far too bright to look at so I only managed a cautionary glimpse and that was that. This is a picture of what it looked like during the height for me...

Made myself a little camera. [IMG]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/85825490/2015-03-20%2011.16.29.1.jpg[/IMG]

just saw it, it was cool. sadly even the sun blocked 90% it doesnt make any darker around you.

i've taken some neat pictures with special filters [url]https://www.flickr.com/photos/eddieltu/sets/72157650996928467/[/url]

man, that aurora we had around here 2 nights ago was way more spectacular than this im not trusting any cosmic body related events outside our atmosphere anymore

I was expecting complete overcast, so happy to get some patches to see it :) Though I only had my phone.. [QUOTE][img]http://oi62.tinypic.com/9fy9t5.jpg[/img] [img]http://i62.tinypic.com/1445pic.jpg[/img][/QUOTE]

Did I sleep through it? :^(

oh so that's why it was slightly darker than usual outside a bit ago
