Astronomy enthusiasts rose in the early hours of the morning to capture a rare glimpse at a solar eclipse.
Those in the Northern US, Canada, and Greenland got the best shots of the “ring of fire” eclipse that took place on Thursday morning, although the eclipse was only partial for most of the Northern hemisphere.

Space enthusiast Brandon Berkoff woke up at 5AM to snap this picture from the Sunken Meadow Beach, Long Island, New York. “I got there right as the sun got above the horizon,” he told Insider.
Meteorology student Collin Gross was also an early riser, and met about a dozen people or so on the beach in New Jersey waiting for the eclipse. “It was amazing! This was the first one I’ve actually seen and it’s so much more amazing seeing it in person,” he said.
