This page describes an image Equatorial Sunrise Eclipse
Image caption:
This breathtaking image shows a sunrise sequence of the annular eclipse of 2006, as it unfolds against the tranquil backdrop of Des Roches beach in Kourou, French Guiana. Positioned near a renowned spaceport, this location provides an impeccable viewpoint to behold the celestial event. This image was captured using an analogue camera, with a shot being taken every 10 minutes on the same film frame. The exposures were changed as the Sun rose. The Moon’s disc can be seen gradually moving across the Sun’s disc from the earliest (lower) image until it covers the Sun. It then slowly moves away, revealing the whole of the solar disc again. Kourou’s unique geographic location close to Earth’s equator ensures that the path of the rising Sun is nearly perpendicular to the horizon, magnifying the splendour of the eclipse.

Image caption: Dieses atemberaubende Bild zeigt eine Sonnenaufgangssequenz der ringförmigen Sonnenfinsternis von 2006, die sich vor der ruhigen Kulisse des Strandes Des Roches in Kourou in Französisch-Guayana entfaltet. Dieser Standort in der Nähe eines bekannten Weltraumbahnhofs bot einen ausgezeichneten Blickwinkel auf das Himmelsspektakel. Dieses Bild ist mit einer analogen Kamera entstanden, wobei alle 10 Minuten eine Aufnahme auf demselben Filmabschnitt gemacht wurde. Die Belichtungszeiten wurden dabei der zunehmenden Horizonthöhe der Sonne angepasst. Man sieht, wie sich die Mondscheibe vom ersten (untersten) Bild ausgehend allmählich über die Sonnenscheibe bewegt, bis sie die Sonne verdeckt. Anschließend entfernt sie sich langsam und gibt wieder den Blick auf die gesamte Sonnenscheibe frei. Die einzigartige geografische Lage von Kourou in der Nähe des Erdäquators sorgt dafür, dass die Bahn der aufgehenden Sonne fast senkrecht zum Horizont verläuft, was die Pracht der Sonnenfinsternis noch vergrößert.

Image caption: Terzo classificato al concorso di astrofotografia IAU OAE 2023, categoria Immagini fisse dell'arco diurno del Sole e solargrafie: Equatorial Sunrise Eclipse, di Fabrizio Melandri.
Il terzo posto nella categoria Immagini fisse di archi diurni del Sole e solarografie va a questa sequenza mozzafiato di un'alba del 2006, con l'eclissi anulare che si svolge sullo sfondo tranquillo della spiaggia di Des Roches a Kourou, nella Guyana francese. Posizionata vicino a un rinomato spazioporto, questa località offre un punto di vista impeccabile per ammirare l'evento celeste. L'immagine è stata catturata con una fotocamera analogica, scattando una foto ogni 10 minuti sullo stesso fotogramma. Le esposizioni sono state modificate man mano che il Sole sorgeva. Il disco della Luna può essere visto muoversi gradualmente attraverso il disco del Sole dalla prima immagine (in basso) fino a coprire il Sole. Poi si allontana lentamente, rivelando di nuovo l'intero disco solare. La posizione geografica unica di Kourou, vicino all'equatore terrestre, fa sì che il percorso del Sole nascente sia quasi perpendicolare all'orizzonte, amplificando lo splendore dell'eclissi.

Image caption: 这张令人叹为观止的照片展示了2006年日环食的日出序列，背景是法属圭亚那库鲁德罗什海滩的宁静景色。库鲁临近著名的航天发射中心，是观赏这一天文奇观的绝佳地点。该照片使用胶片相机拍摄，在同一张胶片上每隔10分钟曝光一次，并随着太阳升起调整曝光设置。从最早的影像（下）可以看到月盘面逐渐移动到太阳盘面上，直到覆盖太阳，然后慢慢移开，最终再次显露出完整的太阳盘面。库鲁因其靠近地球赤道的独特地理位置，能确保太阳升起的轨迹几乎垂直于地平线，从而增强了日环食的壮丽景象。
