In the 2019 solar in Chile there was this couple next to me. Right when totality started, the woman turned around, facing away from the Sun, and asked her husband to take a pic of her with the eclipsed Sun behind her.

The guy was visibly confused, his face clearly saying "wtf are you doing, you're gonna miss it." He struggled to get a pic, as the Sun/Moon are much smaller on the sky than what most people think.

Totality is brief, enjoy it! Forget about pics if you're not experienced.
