Hi from Honda of Salem. Taken with a Sony DSC-H1 and Sony VCL-DH1758 teleconverter. Gonna find a parking lot to sleep for a bit. Rest areas crowded and lots of traffic.
Looking back I should've went somewhere else as the dealership's lights pretty much took a lot of the darkness away. The lot next door had people shooting fireworks up in the air and what's amazing was that when the fireworks exploded they had a black nucleus just like the eclipse. My camera wasn't able to capture it because it got washed out by the parking lot lights.
Traffic was horrible the first hour after the eclipse. I ended up staying at the dealer using their free wifi to post that pic. Rest areas between Albany and Salem were full and closed off by Oregon State Troopers. Despite multiple signs about not parking on the side of the freeway a whole bunch of people parked on the side of the freeway.
