A cloud showing which path to take on the Trans-Pennine Trail, UK. Apparently, it was the right way to go, too.

Not so certain of the dove ID. Being a bit of a birder I’d say the beak is too long. However, a curious image manifests if you ignore the ‘moustache’ for it is a Lamb with dove wings. Biblical scholars take note!!

You might like to have sight of this fantastic view of the event – photo comes from NASA’s APOD page

– look for the rare “Bailey’s Beads” around the Sun’s circumference. These are akin to stunning brilliant blue and/or white sparkling diamonds with eye-blinding light. Celestial magic!

A once in a lifetime vista. The last time I saw a complete – i.e. 100% solar eclipse, from memory, was in 2000. The next complete solar eclipse is not due to occur till the year 2090 by which time I, and many others reading this,, will have “pegged out” and truly burried and rotted or maybe cremated.
