On August 21, 2017 the Night Sky Festival went out with a flare as a partial solar eclipse occurred over Shenandoah National Park. Visitors young and old gathered at Byrd Visitor Center to experience the wonder of this natural phenomenon together.

Mid-Total Lunar Eclipse, Spica and Mars April 15, 2014.
This image was captured at Arroyo Verde in Baja California Sur, Mexico, halfway between Loreto and La Paz. The remote location provided dark clear skies, resulting in a spectacular show.
Also present are Spica (above) and Mars to the right. As the skies darkened during the eclipse the stars became much more visible.
The copper color inspired the description as a blood moon. The color is caused by the interaction of the light with the atmosphere of the earth while the sun, earth and moon are in alignment.
My first amateur eclipse photos, taken with my Soligor 400mm, whilst holding a stack of filters on the lens. Completely amateurish, but they were so fun and exciting to take!
Here's the eclipse a little later. The shadow started to move off the moon and some light clouds started to drift in.

This ancient inn owes its origins to the pilgrims that visited the nearby shrine of St Swithun. In the 1350’s enterprising residents of the High Street started selling souvenirs, food and drink to pilgrims from the bottom of their gardens. These stalls eventually became permanent shops and inns to form what is now The Square.
In about 1540 the present building was erected; the central siting of the fireplace is typical of a house of this period. Almost all of the timbers are original - of particular interest is the main beam in the front bar; this beam, hewn from a single oak tree, is over six metres long. The way it has been worked (the decoration ceases towards one end), suggests that it was ‘recycled’ from another building, or perhaps a ship. In 1920 the pub underwent extensive restoration, and the original front was removed and replaced with the very good “Mock Tudor” facade.
During the Eclipse’s long history the building has been: a private house, a rectory (to the Church of St Lawrence), an ale-house (in 1750) and finally an inn in the 1800’s. Legend has it that the name arose because it surpassed a nearby inn, the Sun, thereby “Eclipsing” it.
The Eclipse has an important connection with Monmouth rebellion of the 1680’s. Lady Alicia Lisle was held here for her execution after being sentenced to death for harbouring rebels by the notorious “hanging” Judge Jeffries. The trial of 27 August 1685 was a travesty of justice - 71 years old, hard of hearing, she was subjected to a tirade of abuse by Judge Jeffries and sentenced to be hung, drawn and quartered that very day. Horrified clergy and citizens made such an outcry that the sentence was commuted to beheading, and many of the present safeguards in our legal system date from this time. After James II fled the country her daughters won an annulment of their mother’s conviction.
For the execution, a scaffold was erected outside the Eclipse and Lady Alicia spent the last day of her life in a small upstairs room, before being beheaded on 5th September 1685. There have been repeated sightings down the years of a (friendly) ghost of the “Lady in Grey” in the passage outside the room where Lady Alicia was held. If this ghost is in fact that of Lady Alicia, one hopes that she finds pleasure in the convivial atmosphere of this old, unspoilt and friendly inn.
