There's supposed to be an annular eclipse across the Southwest this afternoon. It will be nearly a complete ring in Flagstaff. I guess I'll make a pin hole camera and have a look. Today I'll miss all the trees that were at my old place. They made their own pin holes and near maximum there would be crescents of sunlight on the ground everywhere.

The eclipse was so close to sunset that I think a lot of people didn't notice it was getting dark. The pinhole camera worked fine but it was no use trying to get a picture from it. Fortunately I remembered the leaves I mentioned in my last post, and hunted around the bushes for something I could photograph. There were all the arcs right on the agave. Within minutes the light moved and it was all gone.
