On Sunday the 3rd of November there was a total hybrid solar eclipse that was best visible throughout middle Africa however here in Spain we were able to see a partial eclipse of the Sun and had great weather for the display with temps of 28°C and cloudless skies.
I had a couple of telescopes set up ready to go, one being a Ha pst mod and the other a white light filter on my Newtonian which is the telescope I used to capture some images with.
We had a great afternoon as a family viewing this event and as I could spend some scope time with my kids it always makes things a better experience.
I have included a couple of pics and a small gif animation of the partial eclipse, all in all it was a great day rounded off by a quick trip to the beach.
Not bad for first week of November. :)
