</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">Hi Jay,</span><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">
As you already know, myself and fellow eclipse chaser, David Finlay, are in the process of completing a documentary of the <span class="" tabindex="0">10 May</span> annular eclipse and we need your help. In fact we need the help from everyone in the vast eclipse chasing and astronomical community.</div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">The filming of the documentary is complete, however we require a modest amount of additional funds to finalise post production. We're not asking for donations or charity though; we're Crowd Funding.</div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">Through the website Indiegogo, people interested in receiving DVD copies of our documentary can commit to various levels of funding, for which they receive "Perks". You can purchase a pair of eclipse shades, a DVD of the documentary, or 20 seconds of airtime on the DVD to promote whatever your want!</div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">If only 1% of amateur and professional astronomers around the globe commit to funding, we'll make our target easily.</div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><i><u>And if each person sends this message on to just a few other astro-contacts, or posts the link on their favourite blog or astro-forum,</u></i> we'll reach those 1% of funders. But we need to hurry; the funding campaign will finish <span class="" tabindex="0">on Monday</span> the <span class="" tabindex="0">5th of August</span>.</div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">If this campaign proves to be successful, we intend to document future eclipses using this format; with better equipment and a proper host next time. Eclipse t-shirts are great, but a DVD of the event can be a memento to keep and cherish forever (especially if you're on it <b><i>or you missed it!</i></b>).</div>
<div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">All we ask is that you share this link with people that might be interested. </div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">

</div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px"><br></div><div style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">Thanks in advance for your help! I look forward to seeing you again at another eclipse. </div>
