I think it was more fun to watch everyone in Facebook land watching the eclipse then the eclipse itself! It was so awesome to see everyone united in just having some fun! Thanks to everyone who shared their pics with me!
AND…in case you didn’t get the award winning shots of the eclipse..I share with you these stunners from NASA and Andrew Studer



Open to the public. Dozens of artist-painters will be showcased at this event; additional artists who want to participate will be placed on a waiting list for future art shows.

Hello Astronomy Friends and Paul T. Morrrison, All my photos from after the peak of the eclipse (around 3:05) have beautiful violet or green crescents, and swirly aurora borealis-like colors in the clouds around the sun. Even a bird that flew through the scene has a rainbow light shining through its wings. I wonder why is this? Thank you if you can help.

What fun for the kids at on Magnolia Beach on Sunday. They had egg tossing, burlap racing, fun pie contest, and lost of other fun.

After having a baby there is so much pressure for a mom to bounce back to her pre-baby body right away. Magazines and internet articles use terms like,”get your body back.” What they don’t seem to understand is that your body didn’t go anywhere. You didn’t have a child and then suddenly start going about your day as a floating head. In fact you should feel more connected to your body than ever.
It grew a life and brought it into this world. Go you!
As moms we have so much on our plates. We work (if you stay at home believe me I know you put in plenty of work), we take care of the kids, and we try to take care of ourselves. Unfortunately self care often becomes last on the list of things to do. Is it our fault or are there just not…

It only a week away so if you don’t have your tickets it not to late, just go to kayellisschorlarship.org. It will be a beautiful night out in the harbor she loved, remembering the joy she brought to us all. The fund shares her vision by giving scholarships to local students wanting to pursue careers in the tourism and hospitality business.
Everyone is ready for the Solar Eclipse…even Howard’s Flying Dragon Antiques in Essex! The question I’m getting a lot today is… where do I plan on photographing the Eclipse. Now I know it’s disappointing, but I will not be flexing my shutter today. Unless you have a really good (and costly) Solar Filter you shouldn’t be either! Just as the sun will be dangerous to your sight without proper solar glasses, it too will fry your camera sensor without the proper filter on the lens. If I wasn’t working today I’d head down to the Fisherman’s Statue and hang with the Gloucester area Astronomy Club and take a peek through their awesome setups!! In any event if you are like me, stuck inside the office, live stream from NASA is next best thing…no glasses or filters needed! Enjoy! (Eclipse starts 1:29pm, Peak 2:46 pm, Finished 4:00 pm)
