Astoronomical Show !

What happened to the sun on May 21th? In Japan, We  enjoyed

the rare Ring of Fire , annular solar eclipse , over wide areas along

the Pacific ocean. It is said that it was the first time in 932 years.

This is a picture that  the eclipse  just started, I had taken it without

glasses (I didn't look it in my eyes to keep  my eye in a good condition.)

The picture shows the sun at 7:24am.I tried to take some photes

with special glasses for eclipse on the lens .That did well.

this is the glasses.

I'm not sure why background in this picture had gotten  BLUE .

But it  was good chance for me.

At 7:32 am  YES!!! The long -awaited moment has come.Isn't it 
a spectacular?  What a beautiful ring of fire.

 

8:22am.  Oops! The cloud was almost obscuring the sun.

However, we were fully satisfied with the universal mystery.

 

Here are some pictures of the water paddy field which is located in

the eastern of my house. The moment rice field is coverd with water,

A cupple of  ducks come from nowhere every May.

I like a tranquil scenery very much.

Queen Elizabeth Roses just started blooming in my garden.

I tried to arrange them with the graceful orange roses (I'm not sure the name of the rose) in a cool glass's vase. Brilliant roses  are beautiful alone,aren't they?

Have a nice week!
