It looked almost like it was relief from the background. Lots of twinkly stars behind it.

Usual there’s light reflecting off it so my eyes have to adjust to that. Thus morning, no light so it looked completely different.

Very cool.

I caught the early stages, but clouds obscured the full eclipse here. Your pictures are gorgeous.
