Solar Eclipse today

[archvortex]

Saw the solar eclipse today (well I didn't look directly at it and blind myself) but here are some pics I took. Sorry, the quality is not National Geographic standard. If I had been thinking I would have set up a camera and took a time lapse photo which would have made a cool wallpaper.

wow, perfectly timed for that Balinese quiet day, or am I a bit out what with timezones and such?

You're welcome Slartie!

@Wux nope, you got it spot on! The timing was perfect because an hour later it was overcast here. Kind of freaky to have it go darkish this morning like with a super heavy thunderstorm only there were but a few clouds in the sky. If I was further north I would have gotten the full effect of the eclipse.

The solar eclipse was a hoax. NASA staged the whole thing. I read this on the internet, so it must be true.

I took the red pill and the blue pill and woke up in Trinity's bed and found out how deep her rabbit hole goes :D

The pics look nice to me. At least you could photograph it.

@slartie's_mooning: if you simply convert them to blocks with some imagemagick, you won't see how blurry they are anymore ;)
