A short video of the Solar Eclipse about 10 minutes before it reached its maximum of 92% in Brighton ๐ŸŒ™

Insane to think that it's the Moon that's blocking out the Sun and that the Moon is the same size as the Sun from Earth!

The dark patches are Sunspots, which can release Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) that create Aurora here on Earth! ๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŒŽ

Also, if you haven't seen it check out my other video of the eclipsed Sun behind the Brighton i360 Pod ๐Ÿ“ฝ๏ธ

More photos and videos to follow! โœŒ๐Ÿป

Solar Eclipse behind the Brighton i360 Pod โ˜€๏ธ๐ŸŒ•๐ŸŒ™

I've been planning this shot since I first knew about the eclipse about a year ago and it mostly went how I planned it (although I thought the eclipse was going to appear on the other side of the pod ๐Ÿ˜…)! The panic of building a makeshift solar filter holder out of cardboard about half an hour before I left wasn't ideal, but it seemed to hold up ok...

The shot was taken about 19:20 - so perhaps anyone on the pod at this time might recognise themselves as a figure walking in front of the Sun/Moon ๐Ÿ˜Š

Photos to come....although I think the videos I took were probably the highlight tbh!

Oh, also, hi to anyone I spoke to on the seafront as well! ๐Ÿ˜
