ECLIPSE — dramatic new photograph

Wilson asked me to take this snap at the moment of Maximum Occlusion… although since that amounted to only some 80% and there was thick cloud cover overhead, it didn't get very dark.

Nevertheless, W told everyone that this was a historic moment to be treasured.

The children complained that they couldn't see the eclipse because it was too dark — once W had explained that WAS the eclipse, they kept squeezing their eyes tight shut and shouting, 'It's Eclipsing! It's Eclipsing!'
