It didn't occur to me until later that I could have taken pictures through the glasses. Missed opportunity.

Some very nice pictures at totality taken by one of the US's foremost telescope makers from Casper Wyoming. (enjoy):
---begin quote--- What was supposed to be 2 1/2 minutes of eclipse was over in a flash - seemed like 30 seconds to me. Suddenly Baily's beads and the second Diamond ring appeared and last moment frantic images taken before it was all over. Within a few minutes a heavy cloud passed overhead and hid the sun in a thick haze for the following partials.
Emotions of sad, happy, wonder, and awe were followed by thoughts of the next eclipse.
Diamond Ring has reddish color from thin clouds
