Solar Eclipse Diamond Ring

I am still in awe! Last Monday's total solar eclipse was one of the most amazing things I have ever seen. I had high expectations, and they were shattered. While I won't be alive the next time this happens in Ohio, I plan on traveling to see a few more moments like this in the decades ahead.

 

It has been an incredibly busy week, and I am just now getting these images on my computer. However, I had to post the image that grabbed my attention first, which just happened to be the moment totality ended. This was the very second (3:14:24pm to be exact) that the sun started to reappear and the famous "diamond ring" appeared. The corona and solar prominences were still quite visible along with that golden light beaming past the moon. Wow, what a moment! I will have many more images throughout the week. I am also working on finishing a timelapse that shows the entire event down in Findlay, Ohio. Lastly, I will never view a partial eclipse the same way. A partial eclipse is kinda cool. A total eclipse is beyond epic!
