3 months agoDevils Horns sunrise during a partial eclipse (2019) photographed by Elias Chasiotis at Al Wakrah, Qatar 🇶🇦 🌙
“These images were captured in the coastal city of Al Wakrah, Qatar, on the morning of December 26, 2019, when an annular eclipse was in progress.
Photographer chose a place with the open horizon where he got a perfect view of the eclipsed sun emerging from the sea. When the sun finally began to rise, it looked like two separate pieces, some sort of red horns piercing the sea. It soon took the form of a crescent, with the ‘Etruscan vase’ inferior mirage effect visible.
Due to its shape, the phenomenon was nicknamed the
‘evil sunrise.’” - @space0holic
