Just over the brow of the rise, a photographer has set up a tripod to record a partial eclipse of the sun. This view was taken about eight minutes before the point of greatest obscuration, around 09:29 here. Unfortunately the sun was totally veiled by cloud, and it was never seen over the full two hour duration of the eclipse. Then, the full sun quickly burnt off the cloud and it was a lovely clear day!
