Added another new album with images from the total solar eclipse of 22 Jul 2009: Eclipse 2009 supplementing the China 2009 album. Alas, no images of totality, as we were clouded out.
Added a new Album to the gallery: China 2009 with a selection from this year’s trip to Shanghai, China.
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.
A complete travel report (German only) can be found here..
Last preparations, only a few days to go.
Some useful resources for the upcoming total solar eclipse 22 July 2009, the longest one during the 21st century, just a bit short of 6 mins on the east coast of China.
Only a few days left, the next total solar eclipse on July 22nd is just around the corner. We’ll be heading to a location south of Shanghai.
So this is the perfect time to have a look back at the total solar eclipse of August 1st, 2008.

Oops, quite a while since the last post here. Not that I lost interest in photography ;-), so here is an image from a recent trip [May 2009] to Prague, a gorgeous city, picturesque beyond belief.
