I know exactly how you feel about feeling dissatisfied with the end result but making a storytelling video like this on top of what you pulled off for the shot is pretty damn incredible and it's hard to know how difficult all of this is until you're the one actually doing it which I also experienced yesterday! Hats off man.
I was wondering what you where cooking, but this exceeded my expectations. The shot looks great, but the story to it just makes it 1000x better. Keep it up 👨🍳
Karl man! I definitely understand the feeling of not being completely satisfied with your work. I don't think I ever have been. But this is the best solar eclipse footage I've seen so I think you nailed it. See you in Iceland 2026 ;)
I love to hear the excitement in your voice! I need to be around this type of vibe!! I love what I do & I am new in the video editing world. Tough to find cool, hard working, & passionate ppl right now. LOL I am highway Mary, one woman show type of vibe! Good stuff.
Karl, I loved the Cowboy shot. Nothing ever goes as planned as I found out with my telescopes in Carbondale, IL but the experiences are worth it with all the People. I recommend Australia 2028. I plan on that one and I am 57 now. Good luck. I will be watching to see if you get that shot your looking for. I may decide to chase the Eclipses until I die. Maybe even Greenland, Iceland or Spain. Spain will be 7 degrees on horizon at totality, so might be a hard shot. Thanks again for sharing.
dont be unsattisfied my man - im from Poland I was waiting for some cool shots all around internet from the solar eclipse and when I saw this shot I was like - what the actual fuck Is that real?? This is the best one ive seen , even if this wasn't your final vision it's something no one saw coming so... HATS DOWN!
i don't know why you were dissatisfied, i've nerver seen a cowboy infront of an eclispe at a thousand millimitre, and the picture with the 4 flares is beautifull. You achieved the idea! did you wanted the cowboy to be in levitation too?
Thank you for just being here and showing us behind the scenes of your art. You've inspired me to be a better creator and artist. Thank you so much, legend~
This is dope, I am in India and I didn't know it was not happening here, I even but the Nd filter the eclipse shades from amazing and after a whole day of trying to find the ND filter when I finally put my hands on it I came to know it was only in north America, lol.
