A Crescent Bite: Partial Solar Eclipse Over San Antonio
The Moon’s dark silhouette cuts into the lower-left edge of the orange Sun in this telescopic eclipse photograph from San Antonio, Texas. Sunspots remain visible across the exposed solar disk, while soft variations in brightness add depth to its warm glow against the black background. Captured through a Meade Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope, this view highlights the curved boundary between sunlight and lunar silhouette. #EngelPhotography #SolarEclipse #PartialSolarEclipse #Astrophotography #SolarPhotography #Sunspots #Astronomy #SanAntonio #Texas
