A Real Eclipse – Not The Chick Flick

On May 20th 2012 Anno Domini the moon passed over the sun leaving a perfect ring of light known as the “Ring of Fire.”  In case you missed it here’s a jpg of the event as I saw it from my house.  This is a picture of how the sun appeared as a projection from my telescope (with the eye piece removed) on black paper.  In life the image was much more crisp, but the light flared the camera a lot.  This was the best photo I could grab.  I made a video also but it’s rather long and boring and just shows more of this so I won’t be posting it.
