We also used mirrors to reflect the shape onto the far walls by the pool. The bigger the mirror the brighter but fuzzier the image, much like a camera does with the aperture.
Coming up in a little over five years we will get to experience the total eclipse though as darkness will descend upon the DFW metroplex. One of the few phenomenon I haven't seen yet. I'll probably still do burgers though. I mean, who doesn't like burgers?
