Shadow Of The Moon Cast On The Northern Pacific. 2 Laptop Sleeve

May 20, 2012 - The smoky grey shadow of the moon cast on bright clouds of the northern Pacific Ocean, as the May 20 solar eclipse point tracked towards the Aleutian Islands and then on to northern California. The eclipse is seen obliquely so it appears as a flattened circle. The edge of the shadow looks diffused because of the partial eclipse zone, the wide area where more or less of the sun can be seen around the edge of the moon. The zone of partial eclipse covers a far wider area than the area covered by the total eclipse.
