JAPAN (WTVR)–

A solar eclipse wedding ring proposal?

This image above; is it a fairytale or Photoshop or maybe both?

We just came across the image on our Pinterest account and thought it was too good not to share. We went through the wild and great interwebs to find the source, to see it’s true.

The image has circulated with this caption: “A man in Japan effectively used the solar eclipse to propose to his girlfriend.”

We were shuffled around through a lot of Japanese Tumblrs, and it appears this one might have beenthe source, but there is no other information.
 
We hope it’s real, (and that neither one of them looked at the sun directly) but either way, it’s a neat photo!
