Only 15 hours till the Solar Eclipse here in Australia. It's not a Total, but the more north you are the more percentage the Eclipse. Northern Australia will get something like about 80%. Down here I will get about 70%. BUT . . . you guessed it!!! Forecast is for cloud, rain and cold winds. Terrific I was hoping to broadcast it. If it miraculously clears up, I'll set up and do a broadcast. It starts here at 4pm and reaches it's maximum Eclipse as the sun sets. www.gizmodo.com.au/2014/04/theres-a-solar-eclipse-visible-from-australia-tomorrow-heres-how-to-view-it/

Dedication? Standing out in the freezing wind and rain taking photos of the sun through a tiny gap in the clouds, and catching a cold . . I call that crazy, not dedicated But yeah, I got it The photos of it through raindrops on the Solar Filter look pretty crazy. Here's one of them:
