Click for QT video 		Horizon-Video: 3rd contact -- Totality/Diamond-Ring/Bailey's Beads
video-camera pointed towards SW (sun's azimuth @totality)
NOTE: the brightening SW sky (due to umbra leaving, moving to the NE), makes Venus barely visible above the horizon.
During the panorama, you can see the trees swaying in the breeze.
At end of panorama, you can actually see the southern-umbral-edge "sweep by" (look near the telescope). Hi8 video camera + .5x wide-angle (~84 deg horizontal span)
