Explanation:
Would you go to the end of the world to see a total eclipse of the Sun?
If you did, would you be surprised to find someone else
there already?
In 2003, the Sun, the Moon, Antarctica, and two photographers all lined up in
Antarctica during an unusual
total solar eclipse.
Even given the extreme location, a group of
enthusiastic eclipse chasers ventured near the
bottom of the world to
experience the surreal momentary
disappearance of the Sun behind the Moon.
One of the treasures collected was the
above picture -- a composite of four separate images
digitally combined to realistically simulate how the adaptive human
eye saw the eclipse.
As the image was taken, both the
Moon and the Sun
peaked together over an Antarctic ridge.
In the
sudden darkness, the
magnificent corona
of the Sun became visible around the Moon.
Quite by accident, another photographer was caught
in one of the images checking his video camera.
Visible to his left are an equipment bag and a
collapsible chair.
