The experience was a bit different than I pictured it would be. Instead of it feeling like nighttime in the middle of the day, it was more like a sunset in the middle of the day, where it didn't get near as dark as night, but still much darker than it usually is during the day. It was enough to hear the sound of roosters crowing in the distance.
But it was odd to look up at the sun and see it completely black in color. I took a picture with my phone, but I guess since I didn't have any special photography equipment, it didn't capture the moment correctly at all, and the sun looks pretty much as bright as normal in the picture.
Still, as short as the experience was, and as disappointing as my documentation of it was, the memory of the sun completely black in the sky with a glowing ring around it sticks with me. Definitely a once in a lifetime experience. I'll never see it again.
