My wife caught a partial eclipse unknowingly while trying to capture the sunset in South Texas. She liked the photo, showed it to me, and I noticed a circular cloud shape that seemed quite odd.

I looked up the time and discovered that folks in Arizona and New Mexico were in the path to see a partial eclipse, but Texas was not, unless you catch it at dusk. Pretty cool.
