The longest solar eclipse of the century

Earlier today, the moon passed directly in front of the sun, causing a total solar eclipse that crossed nearly half the Earth - through India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Myanmar and China. Today's was the longest total solar eclipse of the 21st century, lasting as much as 6 minutes and 39 seconds in a few areas. Despite cloudy skies in many of the populated areas in the path, millions of people gathered outside to gaze up and view this rare event. Collected here are a few images of the eclipse, and those people who came out to watch. (33 photos total)

atheist has obviously never seen a total eclipse. Even knowing what they are is an erie experience. Note that people are very quiet during totality. It is like someone turning off a light switch and the lights go out. It is no wonder that primitive people died of fright during these events. Just a celestial event. No way Hosea.

On July 7, a full moon on the second May on Chinese Lunar Calender, the world came together to watch the memorial service of Michael Jackson, a star and The King of the Pops who gave us many beautiful songs which will last forever. Two weeks later, on 22 July, a new moon and a total Eclipse, the world came together one more time to watch the two most important stars closely relating to us on Earth, coming together - many of us stopped and watched! I totally agreed with Sibatosh of msg. 379, I won't be seeing it again this life time as the next one is in 123 years time. I would really like to come back next life, if there is such a thing, to be at the right place to watch this special event. A huge thanks to digital technology.

Posted by Magdalene Mei July 28, 09 12:46 PM

The guy in #12 is probably blind by now. You can stack up 20 sunglasses if you can, it still poses a danger to view a partial solar eclipse without proper protection.

And God has nothing to do with this, this is all mathematics!

When we see eclipse, we get reminded that we are a part of a huge system (Solar system) and what we claim as our achievements on Earth are
insignificant ! We must all reallise that we have been blessed to be born on Earth as Human beings and that we have a definite responsibility here. We should contribute to the extent we can to contribute in maintaining " ECOLOGICAL- -Balance" .
The photographs of the Eclipse on july 22nd is superb. If this Eclipse looks so great, I can't imagine what sort of wonders could be happening in the GALAXYs of the UNIVERSE !!

Now that God has finished presenting the eclipse and the creation of the universe, he has time to raise some more famines, wars, pestilence, murders, starvation, and to wipe out whatever species may be left on Earth. Hosanah!

Look carefully at image 10. These are not dots but images of the partial eclipse. The holes in the paper act as lenses.

Posted by Ward Thompson July 29, 09 08:45 PM

We should be proud of the product of the big invisible magical man in the sky. I swear I saw a winged humanoid or two fly by as the eclipse occurred. I'm sure the red-skinned bad guys that live below the ground were envious, as they can't see the sky at all... ya know.

For those of you who have never seen an eclipse, this is probably an act of God.
BUt let me tell all of you that this has nothing to do with Alah,Jesus, Buda or Chavez.
This is only a natural situation that happended in space.

Thank you, and please stop thinking that if a fly stands in your nose, is an act of God.

Posted by Christian Alvarado July 31, 09 08:18 AM

This selection of images, pertaining to the eclipse, reminds us how satisfying and important the still photographic image can be. The selection brings to us so many aspects ranging from profound to amusing. As Berenice Abbott used to tell me in 1979, "Photography is the art of the Century" and I would like to say it certainly grew into a full time part of everyones life, so much so ,everyone now has cameras on their phones. Which can also shoot video ! So when I look at my mentors images from New York City , I see that she saw the coming of the silicone chip and portrayed this aspect of vision by using the buildings and grid of the city as a way of showing us this chip that was on it's way. I don't think she knew what she was up to either except that the vision points in the direction of precognitive creationalism.

This image is what I call an eclipsed image because Berenice took it neart the end of December when the city lights are eclipsed by the early night fall. It's also the glowing chip of the future....

Posted by PURE-BLOOD KING July 31, 09 12:32 PM

Awesome! I remember seeing a similar astronomical phenomenon, which indeed is rare, when I was just a kid, in my European country, and these photos ( some of them truly remarkable) made me relive the overwhelming emotion that I experienced then. As to some comments I read through, I find them out of place and expressing too much unjustified hatred and disrespect...Nobody has the right to interfere with or attack other people's beliefs.
Once again, an extraordinary event captured in a professional manner!

FYI PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE THE REAL CAUSE FOR ALL THE BAD IN THE WORLD, BECAUSE YOU ARE ABSENT OF GOD JUST LIKE WHEN IT IS DARK, ITS ONLY DARK BECAUSE OF THE ABSENCE OF LIGHT. AND TO THE COMMENT THAT SAID ECLIPSES EXISTED BEFORE RELIGION WELL GOD EXISTED BEFORE RELIGION AND BEFORE ECLIPSES. ANYWAY CONGRATS ON THE PICTURES I WISH ONE DAY I HAVE THE CHANCE TO SEE AN ECLIPSE =]

====
The 'dark side of the moon' isn't always in darkness. It's merely the side of the moon we never see from our view on earth. The entire surface of the moon gets sunlight (during it's day).

Posted by Marian August 6, 09 11:01 PM

A wonderful series of images. But I re-iterate Comment 385 about Photo 12: Stacking sunglasses to view an eclipse (or the Sun at any time) is a good way to go blind. The dimming of the image widens the pupils, while the damaging ultraviolet and infrared light passes though and burns the retina.
Photo 29 - photographing through exposed film - is pretty dubious, too.
