Details:
My wife and I traveled to escape persistent cloudiness to see this eclipse. Warwick, RI was very clear with radiational cooling, enough to make seeing difficult and cars were getting covered with dew within a half hour of sunset.
This image was just after second umbral contact-- beginning of totality at 02:12. This eclipse was especially dark.
Note the blue color in the upper right (northern part) of the outer umbra and see how the color turns to yellow towards the south. This color transition is most likely due to recent volcanic eruptions in the Earth's Southern hemisphere. ISO 640, 1/2 second closely matches the visual impression.
