TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE 2010
OVER THE PACIFIC OCEAN

-a haiku vision-

After the total solar eclipse in 2010 July 11th,
visible from the south of the Pacific Ocean,
I received images about the phenomenon
from two dear friends of SARM:

-Catalin Beldea (Romania, a witness of the eclipse
in the Hao atol, Frech Polinesia,
with the help of Samsung Mobile Romania;
Catalin is famous for another total solar eclipse image,
made in 2008 in Novosibirsk, Siberia, Russia,
and included by NASA in the Astronomy Pictures of the Day series);

-and Yasuhiro Tonomura (Japan, the country of the haiku;
Tono is a member of the Oriental Astronomical Society
and a zonal leader of the Nippon Meteor Society,
and was a witness of the eclipse in the Easter Island).

-Valentin Grigore
(President of SARM)-
