Solar Eclipse



Solar Eclipse, originally known as Sun's Corona During a Total Eclipse, is a wallpaper included in Windows 2000 and Me, licensed from Corbis. It was taken by Roger Ressmeyer, who also took Windows XP's Radiance and Stonehenge. It depicts the sun's corona during a solar eclipse at Mauna Kea Observatories, Hawaii, USA. While the original image was in color, the version in 2000 and Me is greyscale. As of 2020 it can no longer be licensed, as Getty have not converted it from the now discontinued rights-managed to royalty free.
