Partial eclipse of the sun over Casablanca, Morocco

These were taken by my Dad, who lived in Casablanca for several years in the Eighties. I’ve never been to Africa; my then-wife and I had invitations from my Dad when he lived in Morocco, Zambia, and Tanzania; but she didn’t want to go.

Images in the Friday Slide Scans are from 35mm slides taken between 1953 and 2003 by (in rough chronological order) Bill Bray, Jean Bray, Tim Bray, Cath Bray, and Lauren Wood; when I know exactly who took one, I’ll say; in this case, Bill Bray. Most but not all of the slides were on Kodachrome; they were digitized using a Nikon CoolScan 4000 ED scanner and cleaned up by a combination of the Nikon scanning software and PhotoShop Elements.
