Clouded partial solar eclipse Waterford city, Ireland

Very nice , got a sunspot on that second one . What filter did you use ?

Some clouds (But not too dens) can significantly add to solar eclipse.
This is one good eg.

Thanks Celestron & Samsen.
I was using a glass Seymour solar filter. http://www.rothervalle​yoptics.co.uk …2-glass-solar-filter.html

BTW Miki how do you like your glass aluminum base filter?
I have only used home made solar filters so far, but got ahead and ordered a glass optical filter 4" filter, similar to yours. Can't wait to try it.

The build quality is excellent, but the coating on the glass (inner surface) is very easily scratched if cleaning it. It produces an orange/yellow sun, but the colour can be removed in post to give a more natural look. The filter needs to be slightly bigger than your lens diameter, but there is a securing screw & padding provided to make it fit perfectly and there is no fear of it falling off.
