That last image of the formation of the ring from left to right would absolutely make a phenomenal poster. I'd totally buy one! I took my 2 1/2 year old granddaughter to watch the totality. I regret not being able to afford even a decent camera and only had my cell phone to work with. At least she got to witness one, and if I'm still alive in 2045, we'll be witnessing that one together as well. About that photo becoming a poster ... I'm quite serious about wanting one.

@wilconradnorinradd 5 месяцев назад

@kylemccaslin It must have been a profound experience. I'm always living in an area where I am totally unable to see Totality. (Waikiki, Oahu) I too , say that you deserve best NASA photo Award. I do not speak for the commenter above, but for myself. I ask, may you look objectively at Nasa photos of Earth, Moon and universe as a whole and understand, as NASA has admitted, that all of their photos are CGI. In that regard, your photos are better than NASA photos. I say that from the Love Within Me. Now there are 2 parts of your work that was quite stellar! Your Composite of the Shadow Moon, may you sharpen the details and maybe post them? Also, Idk if you noticed, the video from the GOESS, you showed the Moon Shadow and Sun Light. Thing is,...the Moon, Sun and Planets all travel along the ecliptic...so what was that bright as 'shine' that traveled with the day as the Night/Day Terminator moved across the Earth? That light was moving East to West as the Shadow moved SouthWest to NorthEast. Is that correct for the Moon occulting the Sun?

@elvispresley6392 5 месяцев назад

Right ? I was at about 95%. It dawned on me how bright the sun really is. At only 5% sunshine, it was very bright. Sure I've been under an eclipse before, but it never really struck me that way before. Imagine any other, even a very strong light, with 95% of it covered. It's going to be pretty dim. It is amazing . . . ✌️😎

@jm5390 3 месяца назад

The last 3-5 minutes before totality and during totality is unlike anything that can be described accurately. Before this eclipse, I would try to explain the drop in light and change of color tints before totality and the bluish purple sky of totality to people and get blank stares. Now that many of my friends & family saw this April 2024 eclipse, they get it. Many have told me it was weirder and better than they expected.

@edgarjgomezg 5 месяцев назад

This is the best content I've seen of the Eclipse! Absolute master work. I'm so happy someone was able to capture that moment of my life so well. I was in MO as well and got some great amateur content, but yours is next level. It's just awesome!

@kylemccaslin 5 месяцев назад

Thank you thank you! I'm glad so much of it worked. Was a real scramble to get everything automated and running before totality actually happened. And sounds like alot of us were in MO lol, that and NY/Maine/Canada. I'd love to see your images too if you have them posted anywhere!

@sbeloor 5 месяцев назад

This is amazing. I share your excitement! As excited (and anxious about the cloud cover) as I was, I was not in the least prepared for the experience. As the moon snuffed out the sun, I sobbed inconsolably for the entire two minutes of totality and all the way home. Nothing like I had ever experienced before! You have inspired me to learn how to photograph the next one! Thank you for sharing your work!

I didn't let myself get too focused on it before this because I would have obsessed like you and it is painful. So thank you for real effort

@davidseidner5491 5 месяцев назад

I too, vote for your last composite photo as "best ever". Thank you very much for putting this together. I drove 22 hrs to Carbondale from AZ. The Greatest Show on Earth did not disappoint. We had the same sky as you, mid-level cloud bands moving by just as the eclipse started. By totality they were gone, perfect. I am so glad I had binoculars this time (I saw 2017 in WY, no binos). I could make out all the secret reveals with my naked eye except the hydrogen shot, which was also very cool. The next one is Iceland or Spain. I would be happy to meet up on location Aug 2026 and help with logistics and whatever for even better photos. I think I am now a "totality chaser," ther should be at least a few more before I am dead :). Thanks again.

Thank you SO much for sharing your images and excitement!! 💖 My car couldn't make the trip, but at home we had 99.6% totality. Still an awesome, eerie and moving celestial event. I noticed more things this time, viewing from downtown. All the shadows become extremely sharp. The warm, almost too-warm day suddenly chilled and the wind sprung up - as the eclipse waned, suddenly it felt hot again, the wind died, the shadows blurred. There's definitely a primal feeling during eclipses, kind of like an emotional hum. Or the vibration of Tibetan throat-singing.

I didn't get to see the Bailey's Beads and the first diamond ring when max totality occurred. I was in McKinney, TX, in the path of totality. It was so cloudy that I thought that we were going to miss this but at the moment of totality there was a break in the clouds for over 4 minutes. We got to see max totality and then the Bailey's Beads and the diamond ring as the moon moved away from the sun. Truly felt like a spiritual experience.

Good job young man! I admire young people being so interested in something they become experts in the fields of their interest.

I was so glad that I made my way to Lorain, Ohio, to witness a total eclipse. That prominence was icing on the cake. What an incredible unequivocal personal experience it was!

I live in NC and watched from Texas. I planned that trip for 7 years. After traveling to SC for the solar eclipse in August of 2017, I knew I needed to see the next one. I got INCREDIBLY lucky to have footage of the 2017 eclipse. It was literally LAST MINUTE-- and I mean taping eclipse glasses to an basic camera and then ripping them off at the moment of totality and hoping for the best. The video is on my channel, but it’s trash compared to this 😂 We were better prepared for the 2024 eclipse. What you said at 4:19 is exactly how I feel. I’ve seen a total solar eclipse, I’ve watched my videos, I’ve watched others’ videos, yet I was STILL completely in awe of what I was looking at in front of me. There is NOTHING that can describe the feeling of witnessing this magical event. You JUST. HAVE. TO. BE THERE… that’s all I can say on that. I love that you did this and put so much effort into it, and that you also were able to stand there and enjoy it and take it all in. I shared your video with my aunt in TX- she watched it with me and had all of her cameras/solar film set up for it!

The amount of time and resources to make this video demands a like! You got one from me sr. Thank you!

Hah, that's like the opposite to the advice I gave everyone. Just use your eyes to take it in and experience it. Taking pictures is challenging because of the dramatic exposure differences. But you nailed it. That hydrogen alpha shot of the Sun is so great.

@danp7174 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for sharing your work, some absolutely amazing shots you managed to capture. Myself I travelled a little over 4 hours to experience totality in all it's glory as I had not seen an eclipse since I was a child in the early 90's.

I have been blessed with 2 pristine solar eclipses over my house, and my favorite part is how other people watch in wonder and amazement. I got to experience that with my daughter this time! So happy to see that you had the time of your life at some of my old hiking trails.

I just used my eyes as I gazed in awe, Venus and Jupiter were visible at 1:40 pm CST. I only took out my phone when there was cloud cover, to see where the wandering stars were, and they were all there. No video proof necessary for me, I witnessed an absolutely amazing event.

Watching your video reminded me very much of my own experience with this eclipse (although no way near as much strenuous detail that you went through)... I live in the UK and travelled to the US in 2017 to see the last eclipse but I missed it because a huge storm came in, so I made it my goal for the next 7 years to see the next one. I flew all the way to Texas and bought a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra to capture it, but when the moment finally came I was so nervous. The payoff of finally being able to see it with my own eyes was one of the best experiences of my life, and I got some incredible photos with my phone camera. I'm so glad I was able to live to see this day, and seeing your video brought back all the joy of that moment. Thank you for uploading this 🙏🏻

I ended up watching the total eclipse at Sugarloaf ski resort in Maine. Few hundred people and me at the top of the mountain. Sunny and not a cloud in the sky, perfect weather. The eclipse was awesome.

You got some excellent coverage! Wow! This was spectacular. I ended up staying home got to see 95% coverage. I was supposed to travel to my sister’s lake house to see 100% three hours away. I wished I would have traveled to see it. The weather satellite is so cool. Thank you for sharing this. Wendy❤️🙏🏻🇺🇸
