A reader sends in a photo from Santa Monica yesterday (no more required, thanks). It was "annular":
Why an annular eclipse instead of a total one? Because the moon, constant in size as it may appear to us, does not move in a perfect circle around Earth. Its orbit is slightly elliptical. On average, it's about 239,000 miles away, but at its closest it comes within about 225,000 miles of us. At its farthest — as it was today — it's a little more than 250,000 miles away. It's just enough of a difference so that the moon will only cover 88 percent of the sun.
