Caption

A view of the 2017 Total Eclipse over Watts Bar Reservoir Nuclear Power Plant in Rhea County, Tennessee, USA.

Leading up to the total eclipse everyone was hoping the steam clouds from the power plant cooling towers would blow clear of the eclipse. Happily it did and gave us a clear view with a great backdrop to this solar event that lasted several minutes.
