Romance between Sun and Moon in Ghana!

Nature decided to play games on the minds of mankind when people in Ghana and some West African countries experienced a partial solar eclipse on Sunday, November 3, 2013.

People in some parts of Ghana witnessed the sunny light being dimmed to evening for about one-and-half minutes, when the face of the Sun covered 80-85 per cent by the Moon.

A partial solar eclipse is one where there is a maximum partial cover of the Sun by the Moon.

On March 29,2006, the last time Ghana experienced an eclipse, it was a total eclipse, which caused a complete darkness for three minutes.

This is how an amateur photographer captured the 'romance between the Sun and the Moon:
