D. Kelly: "One
of these pictures shows a pair of eclipse images projected through
my binoculars and onto the shadow of my head. My neighbor Pat
Wahl and I had a great time shooting that one! The
other shows my neighbor's wall with hundreds of images from
light filtering through a birch tree. I showed this to my wife
and neighbor and they were all amazed." |
