Pac-Man.

This partial solar eclipse was widely seen from New Zealand. Taken near the time of maximum coverage, the sun looks like an early computer game icon. Photo details: Canon 350D, ISO 400 @ prime focus through an 80mm Vixen refracting telescope fitted with a solar filter, 1/800th second exposure.
