春分，超級月亮和日蝕 Spring Equinox, Supermoon, and Solar Eclipse

春分，超級月亮和日蝕：今天三種天文現象罕有地在英國同時出現。

Spring equinox, Supermoon, and Solar eclipse: Today sees the three rare celestial events in the UK.

今天是英國的春分。太陽直接照射在赤道，晝和夜的長度幾乎相等。

Spring equinox, when the Sun shines directly on the equator and the length of night and day are nearly equal in the UK.

超級月亮，或近地點滿月。發生在滿月或新月最接近飛經地球時，因而使它看起來比平時較大。

A Supermoon, or perigee moon, happens when the full or new moon does its closest fly-by of the Earth, making it look bigger than it normally does.

日蝕是指一種難得的現象，發生在當月亮行經太陽與地球之間時，太陽完全被月亮遮擋著的時刻。

The Solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Sun and the Earth, and the Sun fully obscured by the Moon.

上述的三種天文現象，雖沒有關連。但每一個的出現已非常罕有，更何況在同一天中發生，當然更是稀奇。

And while it won’t be affected by the two other events, it is rare that the three events happen even individually. 

我們這兒只能看到約 90% 的全蝕。這是我第一次把這奇景拍攝下來。

We can only witness about 90% of the solar eclipse from where we are. This is the first time that I tried to capture the moments as it happens. 

室內室外的光線和氣氛很怪異。手執相機的我又興奮又緊張！

The light changes the colours and atmosphere indoors and outdoor. I felt so excited and nervous at the same time as I was pressing down the shutter!
