The eclipse

Unfortunately thick cloud here :(
 
Thick cloud and an overrunning Teams meeting!
 
Just caught a glimpse of it for a couple of minutes around 1100, but through quite thick cloud and I'd only just got home so no chance to get the camera out. And then it all clagged in again. Sod's law I now have blue sky and patchy cloud. Grrrrrr :( Well done everyone who did manage to capture it.
 
I think my best results where shot through light cloud, this one was through my refractive scope at ~2000mm f/32 & with the aid of a solar filter.

I don't think zooming in further to 4000mm f/64 helped:

This was my first attempt with a 45mm lens with filter. Once I seen it came out I went and got the zoom.
