Couple of cool multi-exposure pictures from the recent eclipse (See posts
here and
here). The first is from
Earth Science Picture of the Day today(let's call that a scite-
see here for explanation; I've generally been pretty impressed with their choices).
Full-sized version here. The second highlights Baily's beads, which are the result of sunlight shining through low places- "valleys-" as the moon-sun alignment approaches and moves away from the total eclipse. From
Astronomy Picture of the Day (
a previous scite), yesterday.
Full size here. And just think, only nine years and two days before I get to see this first-hand for myself.
