You'd have had to be on a different planet yesterday (probably literally!) to have missed the fact that we'd witnessed a partial solar eclipse in the morning.

Everybody and there dog photographed it in some way, either through high powered telescopes or with iPhones.

Purist solar eclipse watchers were probably a bit miffed with the cloud cover and I know in some places the cloud cover meant it wasn't visible at all. In Northampton we had some cloud cover but I think it added some drama to the spectacle.

The images were shot using a DSLR with a 10 stop ND filter on the front of the lens and have had very little post-production work in Lightroom.

Here are my four favourite images from the selection I took.... see if you can spot the plane! (I didn't at the time!!)...
