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 peeked 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. A total solar eclipse will occur on Friday and be visible from the north Atlantic Ocean.

你會去到世界的盡頭只為了觀賞一次日全食嗎?如果你真的去了,是不是會驚訝地發現那裏已經有人呢?在2003年,太陽、月亮和南極洲的景象完美地對齊,成就了一次罕見的日全食。在這個極端的地點,一群熱愛日食的追隨者冒險來到地球最南端,體驗那瞬間太陽被月亮遮蔽的超現實時刻。
其中一項珍貴的收穫便是上面的這幅圖片——這是一組四張單獨圖像的合成,數碼地融合在一起,真實地模擬了人眼在日食時的視覺感受。當拍攝這張圖片時,月亮和太陽同時越過南極的山脊,漆黑一片中,太陽壯麗的日冕顯現了出來。恰巧,一位另一名攝影師被攝入其中,當時他正專心檢查他的視頻攝像機。他的左側可見一個裝備包和一把可折疊椅子。
即將到來的日子,總有一天,在星期五,一次日全食將會在北大西洋上空出現。
