Thanks for the kind words and which I will forward to my good friend and colleague Chris Kotsiopoulos. Chris and I work together on many such projects and yesterday's APOD is another yet such collaboration. However, I should emphasize the photo was taken by Chris and not by me.

Chris and I analyzed and discussed this opportunity to death and planned on meeting at our predetermined site on eclipse day. However, I did not make it there as planned due to a couple of factors but thankfully Chris was there and, in fact, early and proceeded as we had discussed and planned. I am honored that he included my name when, in fact, he had no obligation to do so and in spite of the fact I mentioned to him there was no such need.

To see some really impressive work by Chris, please look at www.greeksky.gr as well as the TWAN guest gallery where he has a number of impressive images.

Anthony.
