Eclipse smiles

But here's my favorite view of the eclipse (from a friend in Tallahassee; another friend in Rancho Santa Fe posted similar ones) - and I missed it, busy as I was looking and not looking skyward! While we were swamped with warnings about the danger of the eclipse to the human eye, there were countless projections underfoot, twinkling harmless under every tree in giddy profusion... There's some kind of lesson in that, I sense, though I can't quite find the words for it.
