China Eclipse.
I was a bit disappointed with the photos from this. My camera was playing up on the day.

Here are a few pix though.

All that is now
All that is gone
All thats to come
And everything under the sun is in tune
But the sun is eclipsed by the moon.

Re: China Eclipse.
Nice pictures Keithie. I remember the partial in the UK in 1999 it was a perculiar almost supernatural experience. Wish I had been down in Cornwall to see the totality.

Amazing KW. I wish we could have seen that here in California. I have a great telescope with a solar filter. It would have been cool.
