Today's eclipse produced a 100-mile-wide 'totality' shadow path that crossed the North Atlantic and covers only two land masses, the Faroe Islands between Scotland and Iceland and the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard. Away from this path the sun was partly obscured. A partial eclipse was visible across a large part of the northern hemisphere, including the whole of Europe, Greenland, Newfoundland, northern Africa and western Asia.
A group standing by the Clifton Observatory in Bristol took turns to look through their giant pinhole camera and a piece of welding glass. Robin Neville, 25, said it had taken around an hour to make the contraption. See more image below....
