It Was a Very Bright Blue Day

Another from the ice skating photograph day. You can see the sliver of the skating rink reflected in the bean. This was the view when turned so the rink is behind you. Facing the rink, the Bean is behind you. It's quite a photographer's dream actually. You can see what a bright day it was and why we had such great shadows. Thank you for your wonderful response to the skating shots!
Blimey, it was blue.

In answer to your question about the eclipse, most of the USA should see it west Canada then across US to the east to lesser degree. Hope this helps.

I wonder if when it was designed that it had photographers in mind. It is an amazing structure and your shots of it are wonderful
