Wasn't looking good at dawn, here in Cheltenham, but I suddenly realised at about 8.30 that the sun was out, spent 10 minutes dashing about getting my camera stuff together, then went down to join the Cotswold Astronomical Society at Imperial Gardens. It stayed clearish until around maximum, then a sheet of thinnish cloud rolled over, covering the sun until the eclipse was over.
Just sorting my pics out now. Not many good ones, since the autofocus couldn't cope with the bright sun even through an IR filter, and the manual focus sucks (or I suck at manually focussing).
