Fwd: Partial Eclipse |Sun

>This morning there was a partial eclipse of the Sun.
No, really.
Despite being at a convenient time for us, most people in the
UK/EU will have missed it due to a thick layer of cloud. However,
Robert Castley from Northamptonshire did catch this nice picture
of the partially eclipsed Sun rising
with pylons in the foreground.
Rob got this image through cloud from near Oxford and Remko go
this one from an office window. To me though, the most impressive
pictures I've seen so far have been images taken with a 37 GHz
radio telescope
at Mets;hovi Radio Observatory. Thanks to
Evan for spotting them.
