Well, I was jolly well expecting the sky to go completely black and us only to be able to see a white ring as the moon lines up in front of the sun.

Just like they show us on telly. But that just did not happen.

False advertising I say!

i spent a considerable amount of time staring at the sun like those dudes in sunshine, and can definitely feel my eyes playing up a bit :p I also learned that an annular eclipse isnt worth the bother. :)

Yes saw it clearly here, the sky went a little dark but not so much and the ring was very clear.

Still was nothing like 14/15 years ago when we had the total solar elipse in England and ir went almost completly dark

Anyone who missed it just switch on the telly this evening and tonight to get constant coverage of people looking up at the sun with silly glasses on and fake-sounding 'sugoi desu ne' comments.

But did you say it extremely dramatically, as if it were the prettiest thing that you had EVER seen. Along with much sucking of air and repetition?
