Partial Solar Eclipse
Today, at 11:28 CET, Bergen, Norway had a partial solar eclipse (38.5%). Here's a picture I took around then.
I don't have a solar filter, so it was sort of a jerry-rigged solution. Using my 105mm lens (the longest I have), I aligned the camera with the sun, placed a cheap pair of eclipse glasses in front of the lens and shot.
