Misty eclipse, St Mary Magdalene Set out this morning to try and sketch the partial solar eclipse as it happened. By drawing the view towards the sun I thought I could experience the moment without blinding myself. But it was slightly misty and there was a weird dull light throughout. So the extra dullness when the eclipse happened (somewhere around 9.35 am) was not obvious to me. As I was in my portable studio (the car) I did not experience the temperature drop either.
I used pastel so I could work quickly. I am looking south over Old Sneed Park towards St Mary Magdalene Church and the Downs, Bristol.
