Oppose because it isn't in any article. Furthermore, there is practically no details visible, just cicles, arcs and glare. Having at least two more images close to totality would have looked better.--

Weak Support - Great ev, nice quality. However, Janke is right, little detail. Details, details, details! --Meldshal 15:10, 11 August 2008 (UTC)reply
Comment The main focus of the image is the eclipse itself, and not the sun or the moon which hides the sun. Detail is high enough for the this image's purpose (to illustrate the phases of the eclipse). That is why I believe extra detail (a bigger red glow?) does not help the image illustrate its subject any better.

I was nice and added the alternate to
Eclipse and
Solar eclipse (hopefully in appropriate sections), but I Oppose this image per Janke's comments, plus it's confusing, has little EV (doesn't easily show what an eclipse is compared to other pics of eclipses, IMO) and not particularly interesting or wowing compared to a lot of the pics on the eclipse pages! But, I'm no expert on eclipses, so it could just be me. Next time you nominate a FPC, please make sure it's in an article. :)

CommentAssuming the pictures were taken at regular intervals, this would make a good animation with the background removed.

Question Why is the sun red? —

I can't know for sure (I didn't make the photo), but I guess it is because it was dawn (10:00-12:00), which explains the red glow around the sun, and the actual sun is white because (I guess) it is how it looks in photographs.
