Und da war doch noch was … ja, in den Osterferien war wieder ein Besuch auf Hallig Gröde angesagt und natürlich sind auch wieder ein paar – naja, trotz Kurzbesuch eigentlich ziemlich viele – Bilder einstanden, die sich im Album Hallig Gröde 2010 finden.

Images from Hallig Gröde in the gallery album Gröde 2010.

A few more impressions from the eclipse chasers at Ramada Plaza Sino-Bay Hotel, Jinshan, China. Not only that we were clouded out during totality, there was also ample supply of drenching rain afterwards. ;-) Thanks to Silvia Otto and Jan Sundström for the images.

[Unfortunately, there’s no higher resolution version of the images.]

At the end, it didn’t work out. We were only partially sucessful, so to speak. Just a few glimpses of the sun thru the clouds between 1st and 2nd contact, and even heavy rain after 3rd contact. The deep darkness was impressing, nevertheless.
