As seen from the Earth, a solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Sun and the Earth, and the Moon fully or partially blocks the Sun. This can happen only during a new moon, when the Sun and the Moon are in conjunction as seen from Earth. In a total eclipse, the disk of the Sun is fully obscured by the Moon. In partial and annular eclipses only part of the Sun is obscured.
This was taken with the aid of two welding filters, and my auto focus struggled to get a lock. Yet another reason I should get something with full manual. Still, I think it was very pretty. I quite enjoyed the momentary transition to dim lighting while the sun was still high.

What's the thing on the right that looks sort of like a drawing of an eclipse?
I was around for an annular eclipse back in the... early 90s, I think? It's a most memorable experience, because the shadows take on a sort of kaleidoscope pattern, the same sort of pattern you'd get if you were on a stage with a ring of lights mounted above and focused on you.

The lighting was pretty amazing during the eclipse. I was driving most of the time, and I got to watch the scenery transform around us, reminded me a bit of playing Anatolia on Age of Mythology. The lighting didn't so much seem dim as it was less glare and less blinding. This pic is awesome, love the green.
