“A Distorted Sunrise Eclipse” is copyrighted by Elias Chasiotis. NASA has permission to show it and we don't, so it isn't on this card.
See it on NASA's siteA sunrise like this is rare. The Moon partially eclipsed the Sun, and a layer of warm air over the sea acted like a giant lens, splitting the Sun into two pieces. The photographer called it the most stunning sunrise of his life. This image was captured with a telephoto lens from Qatar.
