Experiencing the 2024 Total Solar Eclipse in southern Missouri was incredible, words can't do it justice—nor can a video! But I've put together something that will at least give you an idea.

Also as luck would have it, I ran into @smartereveryday and got to see his film photography setup for capturing the eclipse!
