One more great solar eclipse photo for you!

This is a series of pictures of the moon eclipse in the sun from Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah!

In 1923, Bryce Canyon experienced a partial eclipse during a total solar eclipse that passed along the Pacific coast. Now during their centennial year, they’ve now come “full circle” with yesterday’s “Ring of Fire” eclipse.

Bryce Canyon won’t be in the direct path of another eclipse for hundreds of years.

Photo Note: This composite image was created by combining an unfiltered vertical image taken during the first half of the eclipse with 11 solar-filtered images of the sun taken at 15-minute intervals throughout the eclipse. It is not possible to view an annular eclipse event without a solar filter. This composite image is intended as a love letter to the landscape, astronomy, and memories woven together by this eclipse.

What is the origin of the term Tree hugger?

"The first tree huggers were 294 men and 69 women belonging to the Bishnois branch of Hinduism, who, in 1730, died while trying to protect the trees in their village from being turned into the raw material for building a palace. They literally clung to the trees, while being slaughtered by the foresters. But their action led to a royal decree prohibiting the cutting of trees in any Bishnoi village. And now those villages are virtual wooded oases amidst an otherwise desert landscape.

Not only that, the Bishnois inspired the Chipko movement (chipko means “to cling” in Hindi) that started in the 1970s, when a group of peasant women in the Himalayan hills of northern India threw their arms around trees designated to be cut down. Within a few years, this tactic, also known as tree satyagraha, had spread across India, ultimately forcing reforms in forestry and a moratorium on tree felling in Himalayan regions." Info shared by Ecologically Conscious.

Photo is of village women of the Chipko movement in the early 70's in the Garhwal Hills of India, protecting the trees from being cut down.

Be a tree hugger: animal farming is now the leading cause of wild habitat loss!
