Looking a little like the mythical Wandjina, this is an image of my pinhole, held up to the sun, in partial eclipse. Taken at around 6pm, it shows 17 silhouettes of the sun, with the moon occluding 22% of the surface.It's been a particularly auspicious Australia day, as well as a partial solar eclipse (at least in Perth), it was also Republic day in India and the first day of the Chinese new year. . . Even better some of my Sydney in-laws were still in town for a celebratory meal.
