That had to have been taken at Ahu Nau Nau at Anakena Beach. It was the best ahu postioned to get a photo with the sun in the background and ahu in the foreground. The people that went there took a risk because the weather was better north of Hanga Roa. We got a perfect clear view of the eclipse, but the Moai was not positioned and too far away to get the photo that I wanted. I got to see clear skies throughout totality. The\ose at Anakena saw it through clouds, but somebody got that photo.
