Solar Eclipse

Last evening, around 6:30 pm, there was a solar eclipse.  There were many eerie optical phenomenon at the ground level in our garden as a result of the eclipse.  In the following photograph, look between the well pump house and the north facing shaded side of the garage.  What do you see?

"For me, a landscape does not exist in its own right, since its appearance changes at every moment; but the surrounding atmosphere brings it to life - the light and the air which vary continually.  For me, it is only the surrounding atmosphere which gives subjects their true value."
-  Claude Monet

"Zeus, the father of the Olympic Gods, turned mid-day into night, hiding the light of the dazzling Sun; and sore fear came upon men."
-   Archilochus (c680-c640 BC), Greek poet
