What an amazing experience!!
Mrs View & I observerved from a small hill at the back of Edmonton ( Southside Cairns Suburb ) and while we started with cloud, it cleared at about 1/4 in and had clear viewing from that point, through totality and back to full exposure again.
Did anyone else notice the strange " Shimmer Shadows " on the ground either side of totality ??
Does anyone know the name of this phenomenon ?
Was it caused by the the event occurring at such a shallow angle to the horizon or was it shadows of reflected radiation from the upper atmosphere?
Amazing stuff !!
