Planning to try and get to Novosibirsk in Siberia for the Solar Eclipse on August 1st. The irony being that it'll probably be bad weather like the solstice, yet it appeals to me that this is the nature of both life and photography, to pursue this photograph across a continent with no guarantees of anything but that I'll struggle to find vegetarian food in a Russian train station. Since the eclipse of 1999 visible from the UK the hobby of eclipse chasing has become increasingly popular with people travelling across the globe to rack up total eclipses. There are some great sites devoted to this like Eclipse Chasers, and thanks to this site for the image.
