Hi Richard, It is interesting that you were able to see the eclipse, although hazy, while in North Augusta (15 miles east of Spencerville) we saw only the ...
Nice report Piz, ... I think you meant to write "slightly out of focus in one eye". Which would be correctable by slightly moving one eyepiece. Which is hard...
