Did You See What I Saw?


















WOW!! did you see the eclipse of the moon? It was a beautiful sight. I nipped the top pictures from my daughters blog which she took herself,,,, you should have a look at her blog as she is a very talented artist and writer(Proud Mother got sidetracked!!)but the others I took myself. Now the big orange one was a terrific opportunity to get this shot as I rode past on my broom!!!!!VBG
Oh Yes I forgot to mention the only picture I REALLY got was the dark one with 3 specks in the middle!!!!!!!!!!hahahahahhaha The others I really got from the TV!!!!!!
OK so I haven't had enough sleep lately and I'm giddy!!!!!!I think I better go to bed!

The three star one is almost exactly what I got. I don't know what posessed me to think that my tiny digital camera would take a picture of that spectacular sight.

HEE HEE... well one can always hope!

Wow Maggie, I love your pictures. I still have to check out the ones I took. I used the digital as my camera didn't have film so I am hoping they turned out as well as yours did.

just incredible, i didn't have a clear shot when it happened from here but i'm tickled you & others are blogging about this event so I didn't miss out entirely. Great pics! I'm enthralled by the colorings too...just miraculous isn't it! Wow, let me catch my breath...Monica :)

We were shocked to be able to see it so clearly here in the normally cloudy pacific northwest. Quite a site! I didn't think to try to photograph it though. (I'm not an instinctive photographer like some people!) Wish I could have been out soon enough to see you gals on your brooms!!! ;- ) (Where do I get one of those by the way?)

Ms. Magie.... - these pictures are fantastic. I took a bunch - but they looked like big black beachballs - and I have a good camera. Don't know what I did wrong. Love your parcel from Wild Girl - she does know how to spoil us, doesn't she!!!

PS You have a talented daughter too?? I must go have a look!
