Crescents

On May 20, 2012, with a makeshift projector, we viewed the annular solar eclipse in Tucson, Arizona where it appeared as a partial eclipse.

Also during the eclipse, subtle crescent shapes appeared in leafy shadows on the ground and walls.

The tiny sun crescents were a little easier to see on smooth white posterboard.
