I observed a Partial Solar Eclipse this afternoon. Presented bellow are some pictures I took from my backyard. I used an Infrared (IR) Filter with a 500mm Opteka Mirror Lens, a 2x Barlow Lens, which gave me 1000mm on the mirror lens. I also used my EFS 55-250mm IS lens. The mirror lens is a cheap and light-weight alternative to a proper telescope. The afternoon Sun was very bright (because the Earth passed its Perihelion few days ago). Instead of using a small aperture I used the IR filter because it cuts off quite a bit of light.
