Morning - happy eclipse, everyone who was under it! This was going to be an entirely different post, about how it was cloudy, and my camera was broken, and I'd not sorted out glasses or even an old Pringles container... and then just as I was about to put out my porridge, there was a shout from the yard "Come and see this!" and I thought oooh -

And how odd that you do better with no sights in archery! They were a great help for me. I didn't know they gave you the option, to be truthful.

Yes! And they had special stands for them that took up all the (very small) space behind the non-shooting line and that I was sure I'd trip over at some point... I expect I yet will! I was also rather bemused to be told that since I was shooting bare back, they'd give me an allowance as far as the points etc. that you needed to progress through the badges,cos it was harder... they should have been giving the people with kit handicaps I reckon, not making out that they were doing me a favour because I'd be less good at it! They're the ones cheating!

And yeay archery - thank you! It's quite nice to think that after... well, many many years on this planet, maybe I finally have a sport that I do...! *g*

Oh, and ha - I know what you mean about working from home making you lazy too. It's so easy to go out for just a mile around the hack track here, without even leaving the property, and yet I do not do it every day! I swear I'll get better... Glad to hear your cloud's gone too - I reckon it was waiting across the UK until the eclipse was done, and then it just whooooshed! off... *vbg*

I didn't think to take photos upwards. There would have been all these leaves in the way anyway, mind you. But I saw it upside down on the ground!

Thank you so much for sharing, they're soooo great!!!
We had sunshine, no clouds at all this time, and I was so excited, and somehow I thought I missed it, because somebody said it would be around 9:30 am, and only for a few minutes, but at 10:30 am the light became somehow muted, there was still sunshine, shadows everything, but darker than before....so I went outside, and took pics with Mr. Maus' tablet, because mine says there's not enough storage, and now I can't post them and and and....I had a fabulous time all on my own, I do hope Maus saw it at school, they prepared the kids to watch it...
And I haven't worked a bit today, I talked with the tablet support for almost an hour, and I still can't figure it out, I might have to call them again....
And my cold got a good hold on me today, it's really starting to annoy me....
But, BEAUTIFUL pics from you and archery and bare bow and GREAT shot!!!!!
I hope your headache will get good NOW!

And yeay - I actually got two golds in one round of arrows, but didn't take my camera down to the targets that time... but even when I stopped getting golds (cos I was trying to hold the bow "properly" which I hadn't been before) it was all good fun... *g ( ... )
