Summary

Description

The first photo of the Total Solar Eclipse taken in my yard in Mt Juliet, Tennessee. This was just seconds after reaching totality. I'm not sure if this is an "O.K" photo (somewhat clear) of this event or not.... but here it is. Totality last almost 2 1/2 minutes here....it was the shortest 2 1/2 minutes of my life!! I wish it would have been longer. It's hard to describe but about forty minutes before totality the sky changed so that it seemed like the light in the yard made your eyes have a harder time focusing or adjusting to the light. (I'm sure that made no sense...sorry.) It was a strange feeling. About 15 minutes before totality the bird's, cicada's and my neighbors chicken's stopped making any sound. During totality it was dead quite. I didn't hear any of the nighttime bugs (crickets, frogs....)... it was kind of a strange quite. During totality the temperature dropped from the upper 90's to the mid 80's!! It was unbelievable how much cooler it got. It makes you realize what a huge part of life the sun is. The experience as a whole was like nothing that I have ever experienced. It really was pretty cool sight!! I just wish that I would have had more time (or thought about) taking a photo that wasn't zoomed in.
