Wagon During Totality - 2017 Total Solar Eclipse
During totality, an antique wooden wagon is seen in silhouette along with thin cirrus clouds that covered the sky. Fred Espenak appears to the right of the wagon viewing the solar corona through his binoculars. The twilight effect surrounding the horizon is cause by scattered sunlight from outside the lunar shadow.
