It had to be an eclipse photograph today, but the forecast for Driffield was iffy. Would we see it or not? I made my way onto the Wolds towards Langtoft in the hopes that I would eliminate any mist. Arriving just before the maximum eclipse, I set up with my tripod, pointed the camera in the direction of the sun - what sun? Then it appeared, 'obscured by clouds', and that was my Pink Floyd moment! I took a series of images, but the disc of the moon was never going to show. As I stood there taking my photographs, I found myself humming 'Mudmen' a track on the Pink Floyd album - 'Obscured by Clouds' and I can't get it out of my head. The eclipse was a great spectacle, but for me it was a reminder of my favourite group, as if I needed one!
Didn't know you were a Floyd fan too, but should have guessed. We were out walking at North Newbald and grabbed a couple of shots ( one on Flickr) as we went along. The clouds add atmosphere I thought.
