@functionoverfashion I didn't see anything but the shape and a whitish glow in the sky with my naked eyes. Maybe if you got in true dark sky country it would be better. Also surprised with all the magenta range pictures, all green from my camera (cheap phone camera, surprised it caught it at all actually).
I can drive four or five hours to truly dark sky in Western Nebraska. Had I known it was going to be so good and a little more time to plan I would have done that.
P.S. Thanks for posting this, I had the same questions
