Default Annular Eclipse of the Sun September 22

Who needs a telescope?
I was fortunate to witness a 70% eclipse of the sun from the Southern tip of Africa on September 22nd 2006. Unfortunately the full eclipse did not make landfall and was passing aver the Carribean and the South Atlantic Ocean.
This image of multiple projections of the 70% eclipse was the result of the sun filtering through the leaves of an Australian Bush Cherry onto our garden path.

These images were taken by a friend of mine from Hermanus, South Africa at 15:00 local time (GMT+2).
