There wasn’t a cloud in the sky when I looked out the other day and saw the Total Solar Eclipse. Yes, it was as dark as night, and no stars were visible, but no clouds were either.
I dashed outside the Mansion to take a Selfie of myself with the Eclipse, the Grinds and the Darkness behind me, hoping that it would turn out.
Well, the Selfie turned out as usual, and I got a lot of sky.
Not much could be seen of the Grinds, and I almost missed the Total Solar Eclipse as well due to the great clonking cloud that suddenly decided to appear.
I say cloud, but it could have been another onslaught of smog… we’ve been waking up to a thick pea soup of a fog for the past few days… according to the news, though, it isn’t fog, but toxic European smog.
Toxic!
Eek! I’ve been out in that.
(Although I have been noticing a strange eerie glow following me about as well lately. Hmmm…)
We in the UK only saw about 80% of the Eclipse, according to some reports I’ve read. I managed to see about 120% of it, thanks to a little help from the Mansion…
And finally, here’s a quick cartoon artist’s impression as to what I expected the photos to turn out like…
Quite similar, don’t you think?
