FG-7041 Annular Eclipse - 10th May 1994 Photographed at the centerline Punta San Francisquito, Baja California, Mexico montage from 5 original photographs, begins lower left. Annular Eclipse - occurs when the Sun and Moon are exactly in line, but the apparent size of the Moon is smaller than that of the Sun. Hence the Sun appears as a very bright ring, or annulus, surrounding the outline of the Moon.
