Rites of Spring Day 1 - Concert Photography

April 16, 2016 in Concerts, Vanderbilt University

An incredible crowd for great performances. Day 2 will be interesting with the sellout.

Today was seriously amazing. Got to see shadow snakes (1st video) a phenomena that happens before and after totality that scientists don't have a 100% certain understanding of. Apparently this is "hitting the eclipse lottery" according to the internet. Then, going through my photos on my computer this afternoon, figured out that I had actually captured some solar flares coming off the sun while it was behind the moon. Can't help but feeling a little small in the grand scheme of things after a day like today. Huge thanks to @aschae35 for letting me crash in Columbia and being the best eclipse buddy. #shadowsnakes #shadowbands #solarflare #eclipse2017
