You don't need a filter for totality itself, but if *any* of the sun is
visible then you *must* use one.  Lots of places are selling them, but I
don't have any details to hand at the moment.  To be honest, I'll probably
not try and take many pix - there'll be plenty of professionally produced
ones after the event.  I'm just going to enjoy the experience - assuming of
course it isn't cloudy.  Cornwall is not noted for clear summer skies!

Regards
Richard
