Eclipse

 

IMG_6803Having enjoyed the last eclipse in 1999 there was no way we were going to miss this one.

IMG_6778We were worried that we wouldn't see anything as there was very thick cloud cover . But then at about 09.00  and with the eclipse at 09.30 the cloud started to clear and we got a good view of the Sun and Moon.

IMG_6797Nearly there and unfortunately it didn't go as dark as we expected ,but it was still great to see.

  3. Nice pics Gary, you must have a good zoom on your camera, was it difficult holding it still enough though?
