An authentic photo of an annular eclipse

A satellite photo of the February 17th, 2026, annular eclipse that includes some details of the Sun's inner corona that are not visible to the unaided human eye or most cameras.

I see you deleted the post that had the AI BS image of a #TotalSolarEclipse in it & was pretending to be an image of the recent #AnnularEclipse. It did mimic High Dynamic Range photography of a total solar eclipse, but the details of the corona were badly flawed.

There's a lot of #AIslop out there.

The Secrets Of The Universe 🔥 On February 17, an annular solar eclipse will sweep across one of the most remote places on the planet: Antarctica. The Moon will slide in front of the Sun, covering 96% of its face, but because...

So far. . . I have mostly seen fake images, or real images showing a clouded out #AnnularEclipse.

It's not a terrible fake, but I'm pretty sure you never see solar prominences during an #AnnularEclipse, prominenes are only observable during #TotalSolarEclipses.

Also, the #Antarctica landscape appears to be illuminated by the Sun, which is clear evidence this is a composite photo if not AI BS.

Perhaps more to the point. . .

If you're in Europe, Asia, Australasia, or the Americas (except the extreme southern tip of South America around Cape Horn), you will see nothing. So don't bother looking.

This "double whammy" of 2 #TotalSolarEclipses occurring above #Crete within just over 2 years would have provoked or renewed interest in #SolarEclipses, but even this gets better.

An #AnnularEclipse occurred on October 27, 1858 BCE.

3 major eclipses within 4 years.

A dramatic image of an annular solar eclipse captured in Macara, Ecuador on April 29, 1995. The sun appears as a bright ring partially obscured by the moon, framed by dark, moody clouds. A small bird silhouetted against the bright ring adds a touch of unexpected life to the scene. The image evokes a sense of awe and wonder at the fleeting beauty of a celestial event.

A breathtaking view of the Earth's annular solar eclipse from the International Space Station (ISS). The dark shadow of the New Moon is visible across the planet's surface, with the H-II Transfer Vehicle-9 (HTV-9) from JAXA docked to the station in the foreground. The image showcases the curvature of the Earth, its cloud formations, and the dramatic contrast of the eclipse shadow. Taken near the border of Kazakhstan and China on June 21, 2020.

A stunning image of a partial solar eclipse during sunset over Manila Bay in the Philippines. The partially eclipsed sun is a vibrant crescent of light against a deep red sky. Silhouetted fishing platforms are visible in the foreground on the calm waters. This picture was taken during the annular solar eclipse of early 2009.

Multiple crescent-shaped shadows of the partial solar eclipse cast by a tree onto a driveway in Burleson, Texas. The gaps between leaves acted as pinhole cameras, projecting miniature images of the eclipsed sun. A testament to nature's ability to recreate celestial events.
