A Correct answer
Explanation

Baily's beads are the points of sunlight that shine through the valleys and craters on the moon's surface just before and after totality during a solar eclipse. They appear as bright beads or pearls of light around the dark moon. The diamond ring effect is related but different - it's the single bright spot that appears just as totality ends.
