Yes, that is a possible explanation, but I wonder if there could be something else at play here, namely the camera itself. If I enlarge your second photo (by Thanakrit), the dark lunar disk is significally smaller than the sun disk, as displayed before or after the eclipse.

I don’t think so. Bear in mind that during a total solar eclipse, you can’t see the solar disk. It’s all dark. The bright thing surrounding the darkened solar disk is the corona.
