Solar Eclipse Today
One of the best places to view the event was in the Spanish capital, Madrid, where thousands came out on to the streets.
Many went to the city's planetarium to view the ring through special eclipse glasses.
Further north and south of the darkest path, a partial eclipse was seen, with the Moon observed to take a large chunk out of the Sun.
In London, UK, this partial eclipse started at 0848 BST (0748 GMT) and ended at 1118 BST (1018 GMT)
