Solar Eclipse

Basic information in solar eclipse canvas prints

This natural phenomenon only happens during a new moon, when the lunar orb moves between Earth and the sun. However, because the moon orbits Earth at a slight angle, these three bodies will only periodically line up on the same plane, creating the solar eclipse. The result of this occurrence is the subject of this very category of solar eclipse canvas prints. To be a bit more specific, during a total solar eclipse, the moon is in just the right position to briefly cast a massive shadow on our planet. As the moon moves and Earth spins, this shadow races across the planet's surface producing a relatively narrow line called the path of totality. See if you can spot this line in our solar eclipse canvas prints. Only sky watchers within this line experience a total solar eclipse, while people near it see only a partial solar eclipse. Nonetheless, it is still fascinating, as evident in solar eclipse canvas prints by Photowall.

It is no wonder that the phrase above has become such a staple in popular culture as proven by the very catchy song lyrics. Just like solar eclipse canvas prints, a sight such as this can really capture the heart wholly. Take note though that a total solar eclipse begins as a barely perceptible nibble out of the sun. Over the next hour or so, this darkness spreads and eventually consumes the solar disk, turning day to night! This state is called "totality" and can last as long as seven and a half minutes. "Total Eclipse" is a solar eclipse canvas print that really showcases that. This cool image can look as good in the hallway at home as it can in the break room at the office. The power of solar eclipse canvas prints lies in their versatility. You can play mix and match with other elements around it, be it in terms of furniture, carpets but most importantly colour. Solar eclipse canvas prints, logically, are dominated by dark and light. Keep this in mind when you are decorating with these motifs.
