A photographer captured the partial solar eclipse and a colourful autumn scene on the same day by the North Sea.
The two contrasting images taken by Press Association photographer Owen Humphreys show a partial solar eclipse over Cullercoats, followed by a crisp and colourful morning shot in North Shields Marina, both taken before noon.
"Not too often you shoot a partial eclipse and some autumn colours on the same morning," wrote Owen, who regularly rises early to snap weather photos in the North East.
