Solar eclipse animate (2008-Aug-01)

Solar eclipse of August 1, 2008. The area of total eclipse is the very small black region near the center of the much larger, moving shadow of partial eclipse

When reading about the eclipse, I felt this image significantly added to the article and demonstrated to me very clearly the path of the moon's shadow across the earth's surface. Although not at 1000px, it is an animation and I feel that it added sufficiently to the article for a nomination.

  • The lisencing is OK. It's when the picture is fair use that we don't want it off the mainspace. Thegreenj 19:35, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
