The Princess and the P (Professor that is) on assignment, by special request.
We started our day with a River Walk along the Truckee River. People are fishing.
Lots of beautiful sculptures with fountains, more fountains with sculptures.
Then a walk by the Rock Wall Haven, five levels of challenge.
Two guys took on the upper level climb, but we did not watch.
At the planetarium I prepare with double protection. Pin-hole test on ground.
I thought we could get a view by reflection, but it was still to bright to look at.
Two photos courtesy of professional we met at the college planetarium.
Third one has double exposure. Fourth was our own capture of Total in center.Many people shared their special glasses, so that we saw the entire eclipse.
Clouds came by to spoil the view, but people were taking pictures anyway.
It was not the ‘Ring of Fire’ expected. It was more of a Ring of Light – a Halo!
Our walk back finds a couple of trees we have not seen, nor could identify.
Sunset did not show the crescent moon.
The princess finds her carriage in time.
Professor admires a machine.
On the flight back I saw a pancake rainbow.
It was ‘full circle’ on the top of a flat cloud.
Imagine that! A Pancake Rainbow!
