Total solar eclipse on March 9, 2016 The total solar eclipse of March 9, 2016, as seen off the coast of Indonesia. This sequence runs from upper right to lower left. During the partial phases before and after totality, the camera lens was covered by a safe solar filter. No filter was used during totality, which is about as bright as the full Moon and just as safe to look at. Rick Fienberg / TravelQuest International / Wilderness Travel
