Explanation:
Atmospheric refraction
flattened the solar disk and distorted
its appearance in this telescopic view of an Atlantic sunrise
on June 10.
From Belmar, New Jersey on the US east coast,
the scene was
recorded
at New Moon
during this season's annular solar eclipse.
The Moon in partial silhouette gives the rising Sun
its crescent shape reminding some of the horns of the devil
(or maybe a flying canoe
...).
But at its full annular phase this eclipsed Sun looked like a
ring of fire in the heavens.
June's annular solar eclipse followed
on the heels of the total
lunar eclipse of late May's Full Moon.
Of course, that total lunar eclipse was a dramatic red
Blood Moon eclipse.
