Sounds like it was amazing. <br /><br />I also agree with Karen, above, that your posts always make me want to visit England, where I've only been once and for just a few days (conference). <br /><br />Happy spring!<br />Erineeochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06779964240236804405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136149811371784755.post-30730949750471846362015-04-03T14:55:41.969-07:002015-04-03T14:55:41.969-07:00That would be the best day Karen.

One of the museums in Oxford had quite a collection of small ones, but this was amazing. <br />I once experienced a natural camera obscura too...it was weird. I walked through our kitchen doorway on extremely sunny day and the shadow of the garden had been transposed and was reflected on the white wall in front of me. It was beautiful and never happened again. Just a trick of the light. I've known of artists use a whole caravan as a pinhole camera. Amazing...<br />I hope that you get to witness one, one day.<br />dxdebby emadianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12222092755385566586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136149811371784755.post-19414022746044985552015-03-30T18:26:10.393-07:002015-03-30T18:26:10.393-07:00Great photo of the solar eclipse.
