Yes we really felt the change in light and temperature!Didn’t manage to capture it, but it was a somewhat surreal experience. Definitely felt the change in the light level.

I like the aerials - they add something to it.Taken in Kidderminster. A lot of cloud cover so no sighting of a full eclipse but I managed to get at least a couple this one being the best.

The Solar Eclipse in Worcestershire by Philip Lench, on Flickr
Last time in 1999 I was using my OM1n and a welding mask. Thought I ought to make an effort as I would be 147 when this happens next so unlikely to make it, got some decent shots much like those above, lots of neighbours came out to have a look through my viewfinder, never been so popular![]()



Some great results here, wish we had some cloud cover really adds to the shots.
Well the large format lens worked to project the eclipse just fine although it was a bit bright on the card.
I also used an old crop DSLR with a 500mm mirror lens with a ND1000+2x ND8+ ND128 and a UV filter stacked and used live view to snap some shots.
