It was a huge one! The cloud cover was just thin enough to allow some of the light from the corona to come through and the flare was on full display. It was astounding to think that such a thing was so much larger than are entire world.
When you think about the sizes and distances of it all, and are able to put yourself into the right position and just think about what is happening its mind blowing
I’m in that same location, saw the same thing. It was wild. Wearing a welding helmet, it looked amazing. Tried to get a shot but not talented enough lol.
I saw this too
Yes it was !!! Super cool
They call it the diamond, apparently. Saw it here and was claimed to be a solar flare. Saw it just as here, bottom left.
We all saw it, too. Very noticeable and lasted a few minutes of totality.

Prominence. Basically a solar flare that isn’t ejected from the sun.
