Don’t forget to pin this lol
I would love to buy a print of your 2019 eclipse. Can you add that one to the store as well?
As an interesting note, if you put the photo in light room or something and up the exposure, you can see some stars where captured as well.
Great job, Destin!!! Your picture came out perfect! 👏👏👏🤓
I love your enthusiasm and your video was a joy to watch! Your photo showing all phases of the eclipse looks worthy of winning an award. You really should enter it into a photography contest! Also it helps that you made UA-cam videos that definitively prove you captured the image using a camera and it's not photoshopped or created using AI.
I wish there was a way to order the large long rectangular print with the white border. That would be awesome!
Please submit the photo to National Geographic.
And APOD
Yes it made me feel a bit inspired almost to tears. The joy you and your family conveyed. The Dr was overwhelmed as well I believe. You made my day. 😊😊
Destin,
As an avid film photographer that came from digital and missed out on my late uncles knowledge of decades, worth the film, photography knowledge I really enjoy everything you do and put out there. I develop all my film in my bathroom. I scan multiple ways as well as looking into modifying cameras from , really awesome engineers who have made amazing things so that we could bring back things such as Polaroids to the RZ 67 for example. I enjoyed your series that you did at the Kodak factory. I thought that was amazing and I am very impressed with your ability to get all of this done, especially on a piece of slide film, knowing how finicky they are. Thanks for everything and I’m looking forward to always seeing your content. If you ever find yourself in the central North Carolina area you’re more than welcome to swing through for some fun and science. Macro(6-7mm on one 35mm slide) on film is hard and I’m working on that but would love to show you some things in progress. Keep at it. -ae
What made me emotional isn't just the beauty of the image, but also the whole process of how you got there and the people along the way that each in their way contributed to this amazing photo.
Gives me faith in humanity and that we'll eventually be able to overcome our differences to do/make awesome stuff while being respectful and caring to each other.
Thank you for putting it on your website, I just now ordered a metal print.
I teared up in 2017 during the eclipse, but i chalked it up to never seeing such a thing before. I was totally caught off guard when i teared up again during this eclipse. It it's so beautiful.
Thank you for making the print available. I love the rotated print - and would prefer that, but I'll take the square format print. (Ordered - thank you!!!)
Also, excellent choice shooting in medium format. That is a really nice camera body - nice glass and as you found you have lots of options for interesting multi-exposure photography.
I saw the eclipse in southern Ontario and it was incredible. We only had phones with us though and didn't get very good pictures. Thank you so much for sharing your photograph!
this one make me feel like when you showed Samantha Cristoforetti replying to you from the ISS
Do you know if your camera was plumb when taking the photos? If not it would be really cool to hang a print "crooked" to match the angle of your tripod
I don’t know actually! I tried to get it straight as I could
Hey Destin, any good body shop recommendations in Huntsville? I just moved to the area and got hit by an uninsured driver on my first day :(
Bought! Thanks
I know beggar's can't be choosers but I would love the one photoshopped together in Argentina with the mountains in the background, any way we could buy that one?
Can order to Latvia but no Czechia? At least Germany so I can go and pick it up at friend's house
I turned 40 this year and the last 2 eclipses really changed my outlook on love. Seeing you rush for your wife, that touched my heart.
Your excitement was so infectious that we felt your joy
That is the real reason.
AMEN!
And Dr. Telepun as well. Im an instant fan of his work!
i was totally expecting this photo to remain a private item due to how special it is to you, and your wife, and your family. And that would have made perfect sense to me. It is so freakin cool of you to offer it to the world like this. So generous and special, I know we all really appreciate it. thank you
I thought that I was an anomaly getting emotional watching that video. But the energy the video brought was so amazing. Thank you so much Destin for the years of entertainment.
Yep. Same here. Just ordered the metal poster print :)
Straight up best UA-camr.
This 100% makes Patreon worth it. It's simply an incredible photograph.
I'm so excited to get one of these prints, already ordered!!
I got to experience the eclipse with my Family and I'll be gifting it to my Dad who hosted our watch party for the eclipse. It was such an amazing experience and this metal print is the perfect way to memorialize the event. Thanks for sharing it with the rest of us.
Will the metal print be available for a while? I don't have the money now but I'd love to buy one.
Destin, Thanks so much for offering this to non-Patrons. I (47m) was not shy about my emotions watching the revealing of the photo and am thrilled to be able to add it to my office wall - ordered a metal one for myself. And, because I chose poorly and was just north and east of Buffalo w/ my niece (7) for a VERY cloudy eclipse I also ordered a paper 12x12 for her to hang in her bedroom. She was very upset that we didn't get a decent view and her brother (who was further south and west of us with my BIL) did, but I will forever remember the experience with her and my sister. Your channel has inspired a number of gifts to my nieces and nephew over the years and they're turning out to be proper science/space nerds like me. All the best to you and your family.
Knowing how the picture was made adds context. It allows others to appreciate the challenge involved in creating it, and adds to the beauty of the piece.
THANKS! I Truly Love your videos. I also Love you passion it is contagious!
I have a suggestion for anyone trying to figure out the mystery objects. (I believe they are satellites, but have no idea which ones.)
If you use trig to figure out how far away they are from the camera, keep in mind that's NOT the altitude above ground unless the sun was directly overhead. The satellite's altitude above ground will be less than its distance from the camera.
Hey Destin, that's pretty low selection of countries in EU where you can send those 😞 any plan on extending those ? I would love the print but...
Destin, I'm a bit confused. How can the prints be available in Spain and Latvia and not in the rest of the European Union ?
Both Spain and Latvia are members of the EU and are therefore part of the same internal market.
If you have a company print those in Spain or Latvia it should not be a big deal for them to ship to the rest of the EU (maybe a bit higher shipping cost, due to distance, but that's all)
Yo, totally missed an opportunity for a Displate Sponsorship! 😄
Thank you Destin! Is there any chance you can do a tutorial on how you got this shot on film? Framing in such a precise way is... just wonderful
Wait though, so the prints are available to non patrons and the highest res on is available to patrons? Do the prints capture all the detail from the high res version or are they a lower res version? Did they use the high res version but then they couldn't print in that high of resolution? I don't see resolution details or specific mention of this
You should make the long poster print available. I think that one looks the best.
I printed the full image on letter paper (8.5"x11", the image ended up 7.75"x10.26"), but it doesn't look nearly as striking as the long poster. I think I need to have a go at cropping it and printing it over a couple of sheets to make a long poster version (or maybe see if I can find some 8.5"x14" paper to print it on instead).
@@nurmr If you don't mind me asking, which patreon tier do you have to be, to get access to the image? I've never used patreon before so I'm a little lost lol
@@xXBeserker9Xx All tiers have access
@@nurmr Thank you!
whoever puts this on their wall should put it in a lightbox to get the sun to glow like it does in real life.
I would love to do this one day
What’s the song name @ 0:52
Hey Destin, loved this video! When I click the "Eclipse Prints" link, it takes me to a weird Google Video Quality Report page. Please advise.
Destin, I got my metal photos today!!! THEY ARE AWESOMMMEEEE!!! Thank you a million times over!!!
Thank you Destin for making this incredible image available to us. As a result of your post leading up to the eclipse I arranged a watch party at my friend’s house in Waxahachie Texas, directly in path of totality. What an amazing event. I have ordered metal prints for all the families involved in our little event. God bless you and the work you do in our behalf! 🙏☦️
So happy you did this because I was one of the folks who wanted a copy of this photo! Its so awesome.
I'm also a little bummed to have found out we saw the eclipse in the same town but I was in the wrong field! Would have been cool to see you and the doctor showing off all the experiments I was watching for that you guys taught us all about.
See you in Spain for the next one! Or Iceland... Haven't decided if I'm gonna risj bad weather for a longer totality yet.
Destin, thank you so much for caring about your fans. You're the best!
Thank you for offering to sell these. I bought the metal one. Your photo was taken 15 min from where we watched the eclipse. Thank you so much!
I watched your 2024 Eclipse video with my two sons and I was shocked to find myself emotional about the photo as well. I’m not sure if it was your reverence for Dr. Telepun and his excitement or that you’ve once again made me smarter a d strive to be smarter. I’m a tinkerer too and I love arriving at an expected outcome but finding something unexpected within an outcome is extraordinary.
I really hope the national archives will accept this into their collection. This photo is a national treasure. I love your excitement and enthusiasm!
The wide image (see 1:33) is like THE 32:9 ultrawide OLED background.
I agree AWESOME. I just bought my first Christmas Gift. Thank you!
To be fair, the photo by itself looks awesome...who wouldn't want a print!!
Thanks Destin, for making this available. During the eclipse, i wondered how i can document (scrapbook) the progression.. and yes i do have photos, but this is a really cool way to document the 4 hours and 23 minutes of totality, (central Texas) which by the way, was not long enough to oooh and awe over the whole event.. 3+ months after the fact, is when i found this.. I'm not a subscriber to your channel, but i know your out there, and occasionally binge watch your channel.. just found out about your second channel. Also love NDQ.. i listen to those every time. I am encouraged with how unapologetically you are about your faith.. keep it up..
YOU DIDN'T EXPECT IT!!!!! YOU KILLIN' ME, BRUTHA HAHAHAHA.
it's an awesome shot. I want one on my wall.
Awesome story amazing work. Adding to American history!… love it!!!!❤❤
Hey Destin. $70 is maybe not a lot for someone in the US, but it would cost me almost R2000 for a copy of the eclipse that you took. I would dearly like one, but can't afford that amount. Oh well, the joys of living in a third world country. Good job on capturing those pictures!!
Thanks SO very much for making this available, and for the discount available to Patrons. You're the bomb.
guys do you know if is there a way to get the picture in Itlay? or to pay just the file oneshot? unfortunately i don't like montly subcribtions, unless i can be Patreon for a month and get acces to the digital file and i will print it in Italy, Thanks for your info
You never are bold enough with the truth.... God Created.... And you just can not escape the truth with events such as this... All of Creation declares the Glory of God....
Thank you, Jesus
Thank you, Destin
You were surprised people were emotional? Kind of seems you’re an elitist having determined yourself to be on some sort of higher intelectual plane.
hi Destin, I am Korean.
If you have a new product in your store,
please allow me to order it from Korea.
Anyway, I just placed an order and will be receiving my Japanese friend's address.
Many thanks!! 감사합니다. God bless you!!
Hey Destin. Been watching you forever. You’re a beast dude.
I purchased a metal print of the eclipse
Think you could sign it for me??! Huge fan. Thanks :)
Dallas, TX
Edit: oh, nice! The resolution is enough for huge posters!
What's the actual resolution of the file(s) on patreon? You should really give that information. Seeing as how you captured it on medium format film it seems to me that it should be suitable for huge posters. I don't know if your digital scans would be suitable for that, but surely making huge prints from the film itself would work very well. A little 12" copy seems like a waste. 12 feet and now you're talking.
Just received both of the metal prints in the mail today, the timelapse 2024 eclipse AND the 2017 ISS solar transit. They look awesome. Thank you so much for making them available. How can I share a photo of their new home?
Done!!!! Woohoo! Thank you for doing this. Still get emotional just talking about or experience during the eclipse.
17 seconds into the film, checked description, saw the link, bought the metal 12x12. THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS!!!!!! Best $70 I have spent in a long time
I am buying this!!!
A quick question, where were you when you took the picture? I traveled from Alabama to a small town in southern Missouri, just outside Poplar Bluff, to watch the eclipse.
This is a spectacular photo and it was amazing to see the process of making it. I am VERY tempted to try and get the metal version, however I will probably only be able to get the paper version.
On a side note, the technical achievement of this photograph is amazing! I shoot an RB67 (very similar to the RZ67), with 120/220. However it is almost always B&W I make from old areal film stocks that I cut down and roll myself. The few rolls of 120 color and slide are saved for very special occasions, as the cost is very high per shot. And I can honestly say, I would have been very hesitant to try to take a picture like that.
Honestly, this makes me want to break out a roll of color film and just go shoot, even if the cost is higher. Although the Velvia 50 in the freezer will definitely be saved for something extremely special. I doubt I’ll get anything like Bliss, but I’m gonna try!
People also love the photographer. Ansel Adams' picture of Half Dome is more valuable and desired than MY picture of Half Dome. Doesn't that make you all warm and fuzzy!?
I now have 2 Patreon memberships, Not Forgotten and Smarter Every Day, both because of Destin. 😀
I shoot medium format with a Mamiya 645, which has the ability to do multiple exposures. Sadly, I missed the eclipse, and now I'm not quite sad as about it because to be honest, It wouldn't have occurred to me to do that. You did a fantastic job, and it brings me joy to see how much you love film photography (The Kodak series was amazing!) Thank for all you do Destin, and keep shooting film!
THANK YOU
I was hoping you'd do prints of this!
I absolutely LOVE this!
I wonder if he'll ever mention a ballpark number of how many prints get ordered. +1 from me.
Thank you for making this available outside of Patreon. I support you but I have a problem with Patreon.
Hey Destin, A couple of things… First, from the other video, all the old 35mm cameras from back in the day that I am familiar with (manual wind) had a button on the bottom that if you hold it in while winding, it won’t advance the film. This was for double exposures. Also, did you notice that the frame number on the film is 42? (Are you familiar with Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy?) It doesn’t appear to show on the print!
Will you offer the wide print (the same format as Indie Film Lab printed) to buy?
Just ordered the metal plate photo for my wife who traveled (without me due to work) to see totality. I can't believe it was only$70.00! I would have happily paid twice that.
Now comes the hard part. I feel like a kid at Thanksgiving waiting for Christmas!
We got lucky.
It passed right over us, and I dragged my family out to see it.
They didn't expect much. Like, it would be neat? But whatever, why not. Let's go.
They were in awe. It was emotional, and wonderful. They still talk about, saying they are so glad they didn't miss it.
It's hard not to be happy for other people who are sharing such a great experience.
I used to develop film for small business in Huntsville in 2002-2003 and honestly it just made me happy to see actual film being used. Truly makes me long for those days, it may have been my favorite job ever.
I want to buy a metallic print but I don't see an option for South Korea on shipping address section! Only Japan and Hong Kong SAR China. Why?
Framed and hung! Thank you so much for making the photo available!
My mom's birthday is coming up next month, and now I have the perfect present. Thanks!
How can we purchase the photo/poster like Dr. Telepun received from you? The very wide one? I would like that versus the square film image. I can't find it at the link. Thank you. I can't wait.
So glad I can get a copy for myself either way I decide to go. Eclipse happened on my birthday and was unable to view it. Thank you Destin ! ✌️😎
The reason that the video brought me personally to some tears.
Was the love of God's science.
This, awesome perfectness.
Abundant in design.
With no flaws.
Is there a medium or (comparatively)low res copy I can just have as a wallpaper for my PC?
Absolutely I almost teared up I am in Indiana and work at Eli Lilly Pharmaceutical and they let everyone pause work and gave us all eclipse glasses and got to experience it. It was amazing. I was showing everyone how to put the glasses over their phones and adjust and lock exposure tonget good shots. Thank you! You are an amazing Human and I love you for that!
its a shame the photo is slightly out of focus, also in your main video you said you couldn't find a camera to do double exposure but almost any manual SLR can do it with "the little button on the bottom" hack hold it down while holding the spool at the same time as advancing the camera. I used this method during the 2017 solar eclipse with my Minolta srt-101, you also said in that video that you are the only one to do this in 30 years like this is a big deal but I know few people who did it (myself included) on one frame of 35mm in 2017.
My sister and I both say the 2017 eclipse shot was like our roman empire thing we thought about constantly. With you also being the reason I got into shooting film, I can confidently say this photo has replaced the one from 2017. This year since we happened to live in the totality, my sister and I both took photos and it was such an amazing experience. multiple times during it we talked wondering what you had planned because we knew it would be special, and my god it was! I will definitely be getting those metal prints
I’m curious why you only make the photo 12”x12”. I would think that with a photo on film that large you could make it much larger unless, it is too grainy due to the film speed. I would definitely buy a larger one if it was available. Fantastic video by the way. I watched it again with my father who thought it was great and he said, he seems like a really nice guy. I replied I think so too and we need more people in this world like him. Keep up the great work!!!
@SmarterEveryDay2, Destin, I thought I was going to get to see the eclipse from my home, since I live in the path of totality near Syracuse, NY. Of course, being near Syracuse meant it was solid overcast. Even for all that, I was on a hill and able to see the surrounding area pretty well. I don't know if it was my eyes seeing what they wanted to see, but it seemed like I could see the totality shadow approaching as it darkened the clouds in its path. It was difficult to see, because (of course) it didn't have a sharp edge, but I was able to see it none the less. Even though the sun or moon never made an appearance, they still made an incredible impression! Does this seem like it's in the realm of possibility?
I wish I could become a Patron. There are a few UA-camrs that I wish I could contribute to. I am unable to. I can barley afford my mortgage. But I share all the videos to try and contribute to the community. This seems like a great community. You are great.
Destin - I should also thank you for pointing out the Solar Eclipse Timer app. I used it in 2017 in Idaho and this year at the house a bunch of folks I was staying with, two of us had the app going during the eclipse.
Still can't get over how good that photo is and how much joy there was in making it. Would it be possible to get another video going deeper on the technical details of how you did it? How did you calculate the exposure schedule for the multiple images? What filters and other settings did you use? What other little challenges did you have to overcome to get it right when it really mattered? This is something I'd really like to try myself someday (Iceland and Spain/Morocco both coming up in the next few years!) so any insights on how to do it well would be amazing!
I just received my order over here in Europe and I have to say it was extremely well packaged (without actually creating way too much trash).
I identified with the comment about being emotional seeing how you prioritized kissing your wife and having a special moment with your family.
Destin, your wording on the website is poor. "I captured the full eclipse on one exposure of film!" is a fundamentally incorrect statement. I can easily count 21 exposures. It is one frame, or one piece of film, but it is not one exposure.
Great photo! Well done! Good luck finding out which spy satellite that was 😂
i think the music choice helped, can be very powerful just having the right track
I proposed to my girlfriend during this eclipse. I'm so glad you did this. Will definitely be buying a copy.
Someone please explain something...I'm confused. If the moon's path was from lower right to upper left, then why do I need to "read" each of the exposures from left to right for it to reflect how the moon eclipsed the sun? The angle of the moon's path looks correct (lower right to upper left) but the path of the exposures seem to be transposed. In other words, I'm expecting to see the image for C1 in the lower right corner instead of the upper left. Gorgeous photo by the way!
Heck yeah! I bought it, still would be cool on a shirt though. Love your stuff and will continue to support you in the little ways I can. Keep it up brother.
You said in your last video passionate people are interesting, well you are also the subject in that quote. That is what keeps us coming back. Your passions are all ours in some interconnected way. Sometimes like your last video we connect emotionally with not only the subject but also the people. Keep being passionate and I’ll continue being interested.
Hey Destin! the digital prints look great, but if there's any way to do an optical print from the original slide, there would be so much more connection to the actual event. The photons from the eclipse that made the slide would be physically helping other photons make the prints. It would just make it a deeper connection to the actual eclipse I think!
I think it would be really cool to get the paper version and build a shadow/light-box and backlight the print.
Hi, is it possible to buy the picture file itself? i would like to have it as my desktop back ground spread across 4 or more monitors, thankyou ♥
thanks man I was one that commented just bought the metal pic
