Ring of Fire over Monument Valley
An annular solar eclipse, where the Moon's silhouette doesn't quite cover the Sun, creates a spectacular ring of fire. This event, caused by the Moon being near apogee, was visible along a narrow shadow track. While a larger region witnessed a partial eclipse, the full 'ring of fire' was a rare sight. The eclipse track began in western Australia near sunrise.
