Here's my photo of it. I was inside an office with tinted windows, and it was cloudy enough to see without spending the rest of the day going 'ow, my eyes, my eyes'.

Funny, they said here that the next will be in 2026.
Well I only saw the final, at 9:00 the sun was to low for me to see it from my home, do to the neighbour building.
About the eyes, I used a developed piece of film, b&w or slide, the header is always full black and dense, so one can see the sun with out danger.

Like Steed and BossMark saw bugger all here, it got dark, then it got light again. Was just the big man hitting the dimmer switch I'll bet

Actually they just said on the news the next one will be in 2022 here as well. No idea why they said earlier it would be 2081. Maybe that will be the next total eclipse while the one in 2022 will just be a partial one.
