Hello! DPNow

A message to DPNow viewers that I got from the sun while he was in the annular eclipse in May. Obviously a late delivery.

the second one is just for reference.

Thanks Dave. Yes, that one is based on your advice. I think I should have made the holes a bit larger. Although I wrote earlier that it was a message from the sun, this should also be corrected that its from the moon and the sun, as the middle dot is the moon and the ring is the sun, as you know quite well. - taken almost at the zenith of the annular eclipse, though distorted.

BTW I also enjoyed myself with another toy, a pinhole camera that I made on the spot. Just a five-minute job. The result shows I needed a magnifying glass to get clearer photo.

the second one is for reference. the carton box is the pin hole camera I made.
thanks again.
