After we went home from the museum I noticed the clouds were lifting a bit to the west. So I drove to the Great Salt Lake overlook at the Salt Lake-Tooele county border and after the sun got low enough, managed to take a slug of views. Here's a little movie I put together just to show the clouds and the transit. Apparently you have to click on "download" to make the movie play. http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=5099 Here are a couple of representative views, out of 300-plus: With clouds: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=5102 And without, also showing a few handsome sunspots: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=5105 Thanks for taking a look -- Joe
