Two days ago we got see a rare solar eclipse- visible from most of Kenya. The sun here is extremely bright and it was impossible to see anything with naked eye but I did manage to get some good photos of the eclipse. Some thin clouds started passing in front of the sun part-way through the eclipse which actually helped darken the sun enough to be able to see the moon taking a slice out of it, but later on the clouds completely obscured the sun and we were unable to see the total eclipse. Watching the lighting change across the landscape was fascinating as the sun's light became dimmer.
The sun still too bright to see the thin sliver that the moon was taking out of it.

Halfway obscured!
Almost all the way covered, but the clouds were getting darker.
This is the view we had from our "front yard". Sun covered up by clouds at this point.
