Skywatch Friday.

Last Tuesday morning round 9 there was a solar eclipse . As I am not photographing for a long time yet I didn't know I needed a special lens to see the eclipse properly. But I did see the sun rise beautifully and I made these pictures for skywatch Friday The one on the bottom right is the last one of the series. Shortly after this the sky got cloudy and the sun was gone.

Moest van de week aan je denken, want ik dacht al jij zal zeker, mits zichtbaar, deze speciale verschijning op de foto zetten.
Het zijn FANTASTISCHE beelden geworden lieve Riet. Wat zal jij genoten hebben tijdens het fotograferen...

Liefs Josephine

Geweldig gevangen, die gedeeltelijke zonsverduistering! Daar mag je trots op zijn...

Beste wensen nog voor jou en de jouwen en een goed weekend!

These are amazing shots Riet!!! What a gorgeous sunrise!
The fireworks were so lovely too. Going back over the beautiful pictures I've missed has been such a pleasure. I may not always be able to visit often, but I always love to go back and see the beauty you have captured within your lens.
sending you a big hug tonight...

Wonderful picture you have there and a lovely mosaic that you have created. The sunrise is spectacular. It's rays shining gloriously above everything else, reddening the entire sky.

Het is weliswaar moeilijk te zien dat het om een gedeeltelijke zonsverduistering gaat, maar je hebt er toch een mooie serie van kunnen maken, Riet.
Bij ons bleef het wolkendek dinsdagochtend helaas te gesloten.
