Title

Community Eclipse Day

About this image

Today I decided to make it an open activity for our local community in Hale Barnes, S Manchester.

However, lots of eclipse watchers in the field joined us with enthusiasm and lots of questions. Apart from having eclipse glasses, barely, many didnt have a clue how it's happening. All were super-delighted to see the large projected image from my Newtonian, which revealed tiny sunspots, always welcome to extend the discussion.
