This is a photograph of a series of crescent shapes, documenting various stages of a solar eclipse. The image consists of 18 individual photographs arranged in a grid format against a black background, each showing the sun in different phases of being obscured by the moon during the eclipse. Below each photograph, there is a timestamp indicating the precise time each stage was captured, ranging from 2:22 PM to 4:34:30 PM. At the center of the grid, information about the photograph is provided, noting the use of orthochromatic film with a 25A filter, a 90-degree camera angle with an f/200 objective, and a 1/25 second exposure. These details capture the eclipse as witnessed in Dayton, Ohio, on August 31, 1932, showcasing the gradual transition from partial coverage to near-totality and back.
