Last week’s partial solar eclipse as seen from Christchurch, New Zealand. The photographs were taken at about 10:00, 10:30 (at its peak) and 11:00 a.m. I didn’t have a fancy solar filter so these are photos of the shadow of the sun. They’re not the most spectacular shots of the event (!) but they did inspire this week’s painting : )

Quite beautiful and cosmic in a dreamy sort of way; love the midnight blue and various hues! Definitely a fan of this one, and great idea to mark an astronomical event.
Lovely! These pieces look like they would fit perfectly in a children’s sleep book. 🙂
