A cross on the dome of the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour is seen during a partial solar
A cross on the dome of the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour is seen during a partial solar eclipse in Moscow, March 20, 2015. A solar eclipse thrilled thousands of sky gazers on remote Arctic islands on Friday but clouds disappointed some viewers of a rare celestial show that was also partly visible for millions in Europe, Africa and Asia.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Maxim Shemetov, the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour in Moscow takes center stage as a partial solar eclipse unfolds. The grandeur of the cathedral is accentuated by the cross on its dome, which stands tall against the darkened sky. As darkness descends during this rare celestial event on March 20,2015, thousands of sky gazers were thrilled by the sight. While some viewers in remote Arctic islands were fortunate enough to witness an unobstructed view of the solar eclipse, others across Europe, Africa, and Asia had their hopes dashed by clouds. Nevertheless, this unique natural phenomenon left millions awestruck as they caught glimpses of its magic. The low angle view adds depth to the image and showcases how light interacts with shadow during such an extraordinary occurrence. The moon's presence is felt as it partially obscures our sun's glow while casting a mystical atmosphere over everything it touches. This picturesque moment reminds us of nature's power and beauty while also evoking a sense of spirituality through religion. With no people present in this shot, we are left alone to contemplate both our place within the universe and our connection to something greater than ourselves. Shemetov's creative use of composition captures not only a fleeting astronomical event but also invites us to reflect upon our own existence amidst these cosmic wonders.
