Partial Solar Eclipse

From 3rd October 2005. I used the Vixen 114mm f5.3 ED refractor fitted with Baader solar film and a Casio digital camera afocally coupled to a 15mm eyepiece. The exposures were 1/400th of a second. As these eclipses are fairly leisurely affairs, I simply took single frames every five minutes

It's said that all but the least partial of partial eclipses aren't really noticeable if you aren't actually looking at the Sun. At around 10.00 for this one however, I felt that the autumn sunlight had a washed-out quality and that it was distinctly cooler for a while. Maybe it was just psychological...
