The most rare, top-tier eclipse photo would be the Solar Earth Eclipse, but the Apollo 12 crew’s attempt to capture it was marred by camera shake. They said it looked spectacular, though.

Australia for 2028? Why not Spain for 2026?
The 2026 one doesn’t pass over much land or near many major population centres, and a lot of Europeans are going to try and see it, so it’s going to be very difficult to go see it, especially if you’re an American.
Spain’s is a partial eclipse. My question is why not Egypt 2027?
If we’re talking about 12 August 2026, this says it’ll be a total eclipse, in northern Spain at least.
Apollo 12 had some pretty bad luck with cameras. They accidentally pointed the lunar surface video camera at the sun burning out the vidicon tube, and a camera mounted in a window fell and hit Al Bean in the head during splashdown.
