Stephen Laurent, 75, uses a flat colander to project the image of the eclipse onto a piece of paper on the ground during an eclipse viewing event at the Laconia Public Library garden Monday afternoon. Laurent, who already has poorer eyesight, didn’t want to look up at the eclipse, even with the specialized solar eclipse glasses. Projecting the light from the sun through the colander’s holes was another safe way for watchers to view the eclipse. (Daniel Sarch/The Laconia Daily Sun photo)
