Catherine Redmond, Eclipse and Return, 11.3.13

I was up at six a.m. to catch the light as the moon shadowed over the sun.  That the eclipse coincided with a favorite day of mine, The Return to Standard Time, I expected a unique light. Maybe even zombies with this conjunction.  Living on the west side of Manhattan, where the sun goes to bed, positioned me poorly for a rising occluded sun.   This is looking East from 8th Avenue and 35th Street. No one was on the street save a few morning workers.  No zombies.   It is buildings, machinery, the working side of commerce and the underbelly of the tourist industry.
