Spectacular November 3 2013 Solar Eclipse Images As Seen From Around the World

                                Spectacular November 3 2013 Solar Eclipse Images As Seen From Around the World
Many lucky people around the world were treated to an unusual “hybrid” solar eclipse yesterday — so called because the extent to which the Sun was blocked out varied around the world.
Those along North America’s east coast and the northern half of South America saw a brilliant Sun partially eclipsed by the Moon just at dawn, as in our lead image from South Carolina, USA.

But regions like equatorial Africa had a total eclipsed Sun for about a minute, while those in southern Europe, the Middle East, were able to see an “annular” or partial, eclipse.
This type of variable eclipse is rare — the last time one occurred was Nov. 20, 1854 and the next one won’t happen until Oct. 17, 2172!
This was also the last eclipse of the year, and photographers were out to capture the views.
See below some more images captured of this spectacular phenomenon.
