I managed to get a glimpse of the solar eclipse today (11:05 - 13:05 local time) while it was on its way out at 12:35.
Note that the light on the clouds is so blinding that the eclipse itself shows fine.

Nice capture, the wide field and clouds make a change from the close-ups.

And btw: the next total eclipse will be on 12th of August 2026 in the North of Spain!

We had clear skies in Cheshire and I got a good look at it through eclipse ‘glasses’.
No chance to photograph it sadly. The next total solar eclipse is in the US in April 2024 with a totality exceeding 4 minutes in a path where many millions will see it.
In Europe the eclipse of 12 August 2026 will be total from Santander to the Balearics. Expect hotel prices to be astronomical!
