It's very similar to the Total Solar Eclipse, with one distinction: due to variance in distance between the Earth and Moon, the Moon's blocking of the Sun is not entirely complete; a small ring of the Sun's surface area remains visible, whereas in a Total Solar Eclipse the entire surface is hidden. This Annular Solar Eclipse is actually more interesting, at least to me, than the Total Solar Eclipse; the photo is definitely cool to look at:
This is what happens when you don't go to college and take a specialty in a particular science: you still can learn something new every day.
