Clive:
I wonder where they were taken from?  Probably China.  I saw the 2006 event from Turkey and the 1999 one from France.  Even a 99.99% eclipse is third rate compared to a total so it's well worth making the effort to travel to see one.

mistybear:
You're right Clive, China.

Thousands have gathered in locations in the northern hemisphere - including Jiuquan, China, where this photo was taken - to witness a total solar eclipse on August 1, 2008.

Thanks MB.  That's where a friend of mine has gone to see it.   :D
