Here’s my take of the Great American Solar Eclipse of 2024. I was there at singer John Mellencamp's hometown in Southern Indiana.

The 2017 solar eclipse diamond ring in Shawnee National Forest.

The "diamond ring" effect marks the end of the total eclipse.

Our view of the solar eclipse through the trees was small and in this picture of the diamond ring phase the leaves are visible. It's not a perfect picture, but I like the effect of the leaves.
