Today's evening spectacle was of course interesting to serious astronomers and general gawpers at the heavens alike.

But it was also a pleasingly social event.

Calton Hill was rammed: a chattering, laughing and marvelling super-spreader event enjoyed by all.

We witnessed locals lending eclipse-specs to passing strangers from a bench in Mansfield Place. Smiles all round.

This afternoon, work was under way to install this huge and intriguing sculpture on Calton Hill.

Family man, friend and active citizen

A conversation between friends.
