The eclipse of 2017 has nothing to do with politics -- hooray!

That is called the "wedding ring"

Let us see if I can post it from a saved file on this PC. Hope this works

Thanks guys from my SIL. He is really a geek about astro photography. He has some great images of the ISS crossing the face of the sun and the moon. That actually occurred yesterday and there are some photos available of that somewhere. The photographer was in Wyoming and it was the only place in the country where it could be photographed. To tell you how much of a geek he is, if my wife and his wife had not put their foots down, my SIL and I would have been in Wyoming to get that photo as well. He knew it would happen there and no where else well beforehand.

Yup, I got to see it in BG yesterday. Really cool and undeniably unique.

Wow, that's a great shot. NASA worthy.

I will pass that comment along CBBN. Once again thanks from the SIL. I think it may be his best work to date, and I just could not help sharing it with friends here.

Tell him I'm completely serious. If you posted that and said it was from NASA or some big observatory I'd believe it completely. Could be in a textbook.
