| With a camera LMAO No I used a 450mm zoom lens with a welding mask over the end of the lens so that it was safe to look at the sun. That is what gives it the green tinge  | |

| Great pics claire, I watch a full eclipse through a welding mask once, but with two extra glass shields, never thought about taking a photo, well done you.  | |

| Great pics claire.
I remember a full eclipse back in around 1959/60 when it went from a sunny day to full darkness and back again in a few minutes, we watched the eclypse in buckets of water and through coloured cellophane it was a great experience.
Those shots you took are great! | |
