When you enjoy seeing the earth's shadow, you should try to see the shadow of the turtle that supports it as well. anthony

Does that still work out, Merle, for your horizon clearances? Always, always, look OPPOSITE the direction from the Sun. And the sun must be BELOW the horizon, so the shadow goes up into the air a few degrees. (just summarizing). ;-) Good viewing, --Joe PS The shadow stretches from N to S along the horizon opposite the sun, and the shadow reaches HIGHEST (and easiest to see) at the point just opposite the sun. > Merle Lester <merlewiitpom@...> wrote: > > i will look at sunrise. > i am not in a position here to see sunset.... > > Do you ever see the shadow of the earth?
