We had 4 minutes of totality here in Indy.
It was great watching the temperature and UVA and UVB drop and then rise again. Attached is the TI-Nspire file of the data.
Here are the two pages of data during the beginning, from about 5% to 80% partial eclipse.

Then here is the 16 minutes entering into totality

And starting during totality, here is the 1 hour and 12 hours of data as the sun reappears.

The corona was amazingly beautiful. We also easily saw Venus and Jupiter.

The temp dropped from 26.1 deg Celcius to 20.5 and then back up to 26.1. That is a drop from 79.0 deg F to 68.9 deg F back up 10 deg F in that hour after.

The diffraction (holes in Al foil viewed in a box) in the shape of a heart ... partial eclipse of the heart, entering into totality and leaving it.

I thought the ring stand set up was a pleasant design. In this last pic you can also see refraction (binoculars) and the diffraction box.

Enjoy,

Awesome setup.  We were full clouds in WNY.  Have to live vicariously through your pics and data! Thanks for sharing.

Awesome job, Sean. Like Bruce, I have to live vicariously through your and others' pics and data. Darkness during totality, despite cloud cover, was again an awesome experience. Will post a pic of temperature data later. Drop was only around one degree due to cloud cover.
