At specific times every day and without fail Sol, or, if you prefer Helios, interacts with our home in a more artistic manner.

Using film and digital cameras, photographers around the world have captured these unique-each-time moments. And here is what they've seen: the spectacular, awe-inspiring, rising and setting of our Sun."
