Solar Frus....

I have only on word to describe the last outing during the partial solar eclipse in Singapore - pathetic!

Though it didn't rain, the clouds played havoc to the event which made our time out at the carpark behind the church a washout. The sun was shining brightly enough before the appointed time range where we would pay closer attention to the sun in the sky. Then came the clouds that began to play the irritating game of hide-and-go-seek with the sun and then totally covered it for most parts of the time.

That made the sighting for the eclipse, which already was limited, totally and frustrating affair. As if to add salt to the wound, it began to drizzle a little towards the end of the sighting time and we had to pack up all our equipment which stood forlornly all this while. There were some shots taken by my friends who joined in the eclipse party but mostly with their digicam that pointed to the skies with the sun hidden or shining through the darn clouds.

We soothe our frustrations by heading down to the PUB Club, where one of our parishioner is a member there, and some tea and snacks. *sigh*
