The inner corona during a rare Hybrid Eclipse
Exmouth Western Australia April 20th, 2023
Depending from where you see a hybrid solar eclipse, the view will vary from
a partial to annular to a barely, yet totally, eclipsed Sun.
During totality the bright inner corona is
adorned with
dazzling red chromospheric highlights.
This fleeting view (lasting just 58 seconds)
is rare (about once in a decade) and remarkably beautiful.
Various exposure times 1/4 to 1/4000th sec
ISO 100
