Description: In this fast-motion, wide-angle shot of the eclipse in Yiwu, China, in 2008, we can clearly see the shadow of the Moon sweep across the Earth towards us - bathe us in its unearthly light - then sweep away from us at over 3000 kilometers per hour. You rarely get to see umbral action like this! Spine-tingling! Visit www.eclipseguy.com for more on eclipse chasing.
