It may only have been 90% partial, but we had a good time watching the eclipse with many locals atop the 40 metre Teltschikturm at 530 metres up in the Odenwald. Stunning location.

The Sun was still partly eclipsed as it set over Mannheim & the Pfalz on the other side of the Rhine Valley.

Did a live radio with LBC from up there & a long piece with BBC News TV when I got home.

Next year totality with the family in Spain (again), I hope.

The Sun just about to touch the western horizon at sunset, partially eclipsed by the Moon on the left-hand side, taking a bite out of it. The sky is yellow and orange, and there are many windmills in the distance along the hills of the Pfalz on the other side of the Rhine plain. In the middle distance, the plain can be seen with part of Mannheim, while in the foreground, the foothills of the Odenwald are in darker shades. There are some wisps of clouds in the sky above the Sun.

@markmccaughrean@mastodon.social I found it a very interesting experience nonetheless. The light became very odd near max coverage.
