Eclipse Party

The most amazing event I've ever witnessed in my life.
Breathtaking.

Left me speechless with my heart pounding in my chest.

Clouds threatened the view but the timing could not have been more perfect.

Things heard on the field--not sure which was better:
1) "Why are they passing out 3D glasses?" Ok . . .
2) "I can't see a thing through these sun glasses" Well, yeah.

Sometimes there are just no words for such an event as this.

"The heavens declare the glory of God,

and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.
Day to day pours out speech,
and night to night reveals knowledge.
There is no speech, nor are there words,
whose voice is not heard.
Their voice goes out through all the earth,
and their words to the end of the world.
In them he has set a tent for the sun,
which comes out like a bridegroom leaving his chamber,
and, like a strong man, runs its course with joy.
Its rising is from the end of the heavens,
and its circuit to the end of them,
and there is nothing hidden from its heat."

(Psalm 19:1-6)

caught the reflection and bounced it into a cloud

This is called "The Diamond Ring" and it literally sucked the breath from my lungs.
