Natural solar filter

Not having been lucky enough to look through a solar filter yet, I'm not sure what having a good look at the sun is like.

This morning however, I reckon I came just a little bit closer. As I left for work, there was a "perfect" amount of fog around me - not enough to block out the sun entirely, but definitely enough to make looking at it very comfortable. I could make out a very clear outline of the sun. Looked pretty cool to me at the time anyway.

It didn't last long - within 5 minutes the sun had burnt through and was bright again.
