38-Second time lapse, from light to darkness, and back to light, from Athens, Tennessee: TOTAL ECLIPSE AT THE PARK 2017. The photo of totality was taken by my son-in-law (all photos copyrighted 8-21-17...posted with permission). It was a spectacular event! The skies slowly started darkening, with a somewhat bluish haze, and it became considerably cooler. The crickets started singing (loudly), street and security lights came on. There was a lovely 360-degree sunset all around, then the moment of totality! It was amazing and beautiful! There was white light pouring out of the black disc of the moon, and multi-colored lights dancing inside the white light. It was almost indescribable... very strange; almost as if time stood still and we were in another dimension - very Twilight. Then, when the sun first emerged from the black circle, the "Diamond Ring" appeared, and it was truly awesome! The event was amazing, and I am so thankful to have been able to witness such a beautiful event. And this was just a small taste of what's to come. I believe that when we die, we will see EVERYTHING in space... all the beauty and strangeness - things we cannot even imagine!
