Eileen Seto's photos with the keyword: rare

Solar prominences (the red loopy bits on the right edge) visible at eclipse totality. Due to the brightness of the sun's corona, I was not able to see them with my naked eyes, so was delighted to have them show up in the photos. The sun's "secret" revealed!

I'd always wanted to see a total solar eclipse with my own eyes. This year, I finally made the pilgrimage to the eclipse path, and what a sight indeed it was! Shown here is the "diamond ring effect" just brief moments before totality.
