A Ring of Fire Sunrise Solar Eclipse
On May 10, 2013, observers in Western Australia witnessed a sunrise annular solar eclipse. During this event, the Moon passed directly in front of the Sun, but its apparent size was too small to cover the Sun entirely. This created a dramatic 'ring of fire' effect as the Moon's silhouette was encircled by sunlight. The image captures this rare alignment as the Sun rises.
