你會去世界盡頭看日全食嗎？如果你去了，你會驚訝地發現那裡已經有人了嗎？ 2003 年，太陽、月亮、南極洲和兩位攝影師在南極洲不尋常的日全食期間齊聚一堂。 即使是在極端的地點，一群熱情的日食追逐者還是冒險來到世界的最底層，體驗太陽在月球背後消失的超現實瞬間。 收集到的珍品之一就是這張特寫圖片--由四張獨立的圖片透過數字技術合成，真實地模擬了人眼觀看日食的過程。 在拍攝這張圖片時，月球和太陽同時從南極洲的山脊上探出頭來。 在突如其來的黑暗中，月球周圍壯麗的日冕清晰可見。 意外的是，另一位攝影師在檢查他的攝像機時被拍攝到。 在他的左邊可以看到一個裝置包和一把可摺疊的椅子。 更容易看到的日食將在不到四周後發生，在北美的一大片狹長地帶都能看到。
原文：Would you go to the end of the world to see a total eclipse of the Sun? If you did, would you be surprised to find someone else there already? In 2003, the Sun, the Moon, Antarctica, and two photographers all lined up in Antarctica during an unusual total solar eclipse. Even given the extreme location, a group of enthusiastic eclipse chasers ventured near the bottom of the world to experience the surreal momentary disappearance of the Sun behind the Moon. One of the treasures collected was the featured picture -- a composite of four separate images digitally combined to realistically simulate how the adaptive human eye saw the eclipse. As the image was taken, both the Moon and the Sun peeked together over an Antarctic ridge. In the sudden darkness, the magnificent corona of the Sun became visible around the Moon. Quite by accident, another photographer was caught in one of the images checking his video camera. Visible to his left are an equipment bag and a collapsible chair. A more easily visible solar eclipse will occur in just under four weeks and be visible from a long, thin swath of North America.
