hang-glider and eclipse in Nantwich

Thousands of people downed tools across South Cheshire to catch a glimpse of the solar eclipse today.

But this hang-glider had the best view in the skies above Nantwich, as this amazing picture shows.

Nantwich-based photographer Ben Cassidy took this snap showing a hang-glider soaring in front of the amazing spectacle witnessed by millions across the country.

Now we’re hoping someone can help trace the individual who took to the skies.

If you know who it is, you can tweet us @nantwichnews or Ben on @bencassidyphoto.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
