Partial Solar Eclipse Pictures During My Birthday 2009

Found these pictures in my thumb drive. If these are physical pictures, it will be covered with a thick layer of dust. Well, I was on my way back to my parents' house in Cheras when it started. The journey took about 15 minutes on a non peak hour. By the time I reached my destination, using my 6 megapixel digital camera, I discovered that there was too much sunlight! So what I did was, I took my RM9.90 Sungei Wang sunglass and put it in front of the camera lens. Notice I can only capture it on camera when the moon and there was enough clouds covering most part of the sun. 

Caution: It is dangerous to look at the sun directly. Here some great sites to understand more about the phenomenon
