Sounds exciting and very interesting. It also seems like we, in the US, won't get to experience this event, if I read your post correctly. That part is just plain SAD:(
But it's great that you've gotten the word out, there are lot's of people from other parts of the world who blog;)
I'm with you, jodi ~ as a child, I've always held a fascination for the heavens and truly wished to be an astronomer. Once in college, the PhD and thought of a doctoral thesis dampered my enthusiasm :)
Don't worry, Marnie! Even if it was a clear evening, this eclipse will only be visible over the Indian Ocean and western Indonesia ... this photo is only a hopeful dream (a true sunset at the lake with my moon, an overlay).
Join in the astromony club, Marmee ~ I do believe there are MANY moon & star lovers.

Sounds like you're a beloved stargazer also, Philip! When at the lake in northern Michigan, we are most fortunate to see the night sky without light pollution also ... and as you well said ... humbling, exactly how I feel including the heart ache.

I've visited timeanddate.com before but techdreams is new to me. I remember back in the UK we had a solar eclipse. I think it was in '99, might have been '98. It was kind of strange. I not sure where else was affected. I know some of NW Europe was. You must have had it somewhere in the states.
That'sa great pic you've posted there.
Thank you, Rob. It was fun creating a 'dream' eclipse with my sun & moon photos.
It would have been a wonderous site, Rose. Perhaps someday :) It was fun pretending ...
A beautiful thought, Kim ~ Perhaps, just perhaps ... sigh!
