cloudy! :-( brief bits of clear sky, but mostly overcast. most disappointing. we shoulda gone to the planetarium.

Pity. The only time I went to see a total eclipse (Gujarat, 1999) it was clouded over throughout the period of totality: though it became dark and lightened, we saw nothing. A few minutes after the totality ended, the clouds parted... This time here in Chennai it was 80%: very impressive.

Nice! Thankfully, it was a sunny day in Bangalore. Didn't think of taking a pic though...

km, Anindita - thanks! It was indeed a remarkable sight. One of the times I was happy for mobile-phone-cameras...
