Partial Solar Eclipse, 10th Jun 2021

The following pictures were taken during the last 10 minutes (12:15pm) pf the 2021 Partial Eclipse (Annular to certain northern hemisphere locations) in the UK from the convenient location of my back garden in Titchfield, Hampshire. Literally the weather allowed only a few seconds of clarity through the clouds towards the end of the eclipse but sufficient to take a couple of shots which unbelievably seem to be almost in focus. The pictures were taken using a Canon 5D MKIII mounted onto the back of a Takahashi TSA-102S refracting telescope with a 0.75x focal reducer / field flattener (600mm focal length).
