Partial Solar Eclipse from Sweden
Partial solar eclipse from Sweden. It was stressful to find a place for this. The clouds rolled in and I headed off in the car towards clearer areas. Finally, when the eclipse had already started, I found a place by the water with less clouds. I could see the eclipse with the naked eye and photographed it without a filter. There is a risk of both my eyes and the camera sensor being damaged, but everything worked out.

Partial Solar eclipse
Thin clouds arrived but I manage to take som photos from the backyard. I actually used my old Canon Digital Rebel XT today, my very first digital astro camera, still going strong. Amazing to see the moon moving across the suns surface and to see a
great prominence, filament, sunspots and active regions.
