18 Gorgeous Pics Of Solar Eclipse 2017 That Show How Nature Can Find Beauty Even In Dark

Solar Eclipse 2017 was one of the most sought-after events on the Internet. From making obvious jokes on ‘Eclipse’- the Edward-Bella story to making exclusive photobombs of Trump and Obama, you’ve to agree that a lot was done.

Solar Eclipse is the phenomenon that occurs when the moon comes between the Sun and the Earth. Moon’s shadow on the Sun casts a beautiful image and it can last for about 7 minutes.
