      "One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
      One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them"

      That "Lord of the Ring" quote came immediatly to my mind when I saw this picture :D
      Fantastic image Phillip !

      Stunning! I was only lucky enough to see a tiny bite out of the sun from my location. This is incredibly dramatic!
