There are certain events that don’t come around very often but when they do happen, we want to take advantage of them if possible. This includes the solar eclipse, which recently occurred in different parts of the world.

Solar eclipses do not come around frequently and in fact, it’s going to be many years before we have another one again. Many people who were looking forward to this particular event traveled to a distant land to see it, but now it has come and gone.

Despite the fact that it didn’t last very long, there were some spectacular pictures that were taken while it was happening. People were happy to share those pictures online, regardless of where the eclipse was viewed from.

The eclipse cut a path across the United States that turned daylight into nighttime. It is something that really has to be seen to fully appreciate it, but these pictures do help.

You didn’t have to be in the direct path of the eclipse to get some nice pictures. Even a partial eclipse looks great through the lens of a camera or in person.

You’ve probably seen a crescent moon more times than you can imagine but seeing the sun in a similar shape is unusual.

When you have this type of celestial event, people often come out of their shell to be there. It’s something that tends to bring people close together, and it does so in an amazing way.

Even if there were some clouds in the way, you could still get an amazing shot.

We can’t wait for the next eclipse.
