Uncommonly beautiful, even for totality, so the eclipse chasers said...and having been in two total solar eclipses myself, I think they were right.

Captured from the 2024 event in Indiana: "Ultimate Shadow".

A rare moment where the ineffable motions of the wandering stars become legible to the naked eye...and perhaps the most sublime sight in the solar system is viewed from right here on terra firma.

Captured from Indiana, 2024: "Atmospheres".

Seeing the planets move *in real time* was so special it gets me wondering about eclipse-chasing again already...my capture from last year's eclipse in Indiana, "Atmospheres".

Okay, two solar eclipses side-by-side in such perfect totality at the same time strains credibility even on a cosmic scale...but that only means that every last one of us would be as this girl: enraptured in wonder at such a sight. My own artwork, "Girl gazing at binary solar eclipses".
