Partial solar eclipse in Oslo - Aug 1, 2008

You should not look at the sun directly when there is an eclipse, but what do you do if you don't have any of those special protective glasses? You improvise :) A Norwegian 1 Krone coin has a nice little hole in it, so - instant pin hole camera. Nature uses the physics of light to do it's own improvisation as well, such as shining through the small holes in a window blind.
