Approaching second stage of a total solar eclipse, 3 November 1994.

Photograph showing the sun near to the second stage of a total solar eclipse in which the moon moves in front of the sun and blocks off its light. Observed from the Altiplano in Peru, a mountain plateau approximately 4000 metres in height, in the early morning of 3 November 1994. Taken with a small reflecting telescope (focal length: 500 mm, f4.5) with a mylar filter.
