The solar eclipse in Iceland in pictures


Amazing, astounding, magical, beautiful. "We're all friends today." That's how the people of Reykjavík described their experience of the solar eclipse this morning. The weather conditions were outstanding with clear blue skies.
Morgunblaðið/ Mbl.is photographers were all over the city taking photos of the event, and people sent plenty of great photos to us which we've published and are very grateful for.
