Index of Subjects Hello Angela - I sat on a rock out in the centre of a field - I was surprised by the waves of light that appeared as the eclipse became total, the ring of light around the sun while it was in total eclipse, and the wave s that appeared again as it came out of total eclipse. I had never heard of this before and it caught me by total surprise. And yes, I did stare at the sun, and no, it did not blind me. I wanted to see everythin there was to see because I knew I would never have that opportunity again. You realize of course that you told us all how old you were - for what it is worth, the same age as my twins.
