Annular Eclipse 2012, as viewed by your local super-dork.

I made a ghetto camera obscura with a drill and a piece of plywood.  It actually worked pretty well. See?

Here's a direct picture I took.  For those of you interested... I used a Canon 40D w/ 300mm lens, ISO 100, 1/8000, f34 + two out-of-phase polarizing filters.  If you look carefully, you can even see a sunspot.

An eclipse and an earthquake all in the same day.  What does it mean?
