People like you allow people like me to just live in the moment. I'm not worried about capturing photos or anything like that because I know folks like you will do such a better job than I ever could. Thank you for your dedication to the craft.
I was worried no one caught the big red ball and wish I took pics. but now I dont care again since he caught the "prominence". It was odd to get a symmetrical "ruby" with the diamond ring. If youre a believer then youre like yup, end times. I was chill with a simple oroboros but then they threw the eyes of Mot eating the earth and I said yo thats bussin. On god. FR FR.
Hey! Thanks again for those! One of them is holding the Hydrogen Alpha scope in the video! Couldn't have done that without you! And the other I've been using for some satellite reading projects back at my apt, but I'm still troubleshooting some signal strength issues there... Both getting some good use, so thank you again!
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.

"Horrifying" is a word that many people won't quite understand unless they are in the area of totality. I've seen 2 total eclipses now, and both times I felt uneasy seconds before it happened, and pure awe as it happens. BEAUTIFUL image you captured at the end there!
Yeah, there is something very eerie about how its suddenly getting much darker, colder, and quieter. But then you look up and it's just pure awe. It gave me a different type of emotion that I can't quite describe... and when it was over, I was almost depressed at the fact that I will never get to witness it again.
I think maybe the primitive part of our brain feels the fear of day turning into night. Imagine big nocturnal predators waking and trying to grab breakfast!
No one else captured those tendrils of light in the corona like you did. Your excitement is contagious. This was the coolest experience of my life. And this is my favorite eclipse video.
@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?

These are THE BEST photos I have seen of the eclipse. Saw it with my own eyes. SO cool to see that prominence with the naked eye and see it here in full detail. Thank you
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!
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!
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!
Terrific results my friend. Unfortunately too many people brush off totality and it’s so much more than you expected. I was not going to take any photos and just bask in the experience but when I realized I could see the pink glowing prominences I grabbed my camera with a 500mm and was rewarded with a beautiful image after bracketing down 4.5 EV. ✌️
Fantastic! I have been waiting 7 yrs for this event. I did get to see the ring of fire in San Antonio and then this eclipse in Waxahachie Tx. There is nothing like being under that event. Thanks for sharing the amazing results of all the work you did and STRESS you were willing to endure. 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
I think its crazy how the emotions to the eclipe from photographers and people who understand the event are universal. I also had trouble even getting words out after it was over.
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.
22 HOURS. Jesus Christ lol. Oh yeah Binos sound excellent for totality. So could you vaguely make out the Earth-shine on the dark side of the moon? Sounds like your hooked 😂
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 . . . ✌️😎
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.
Awesome video Kyle! I drove to Vermont from Virginia to experience this eclipse. You are right. Photos and video do not capture the magic and overwhelming feelings of seeing it in person. Nicely done.
Without special lenses to watch an eclipse. They are pretty unspectacular. Makes me wonder what, if anything at all, did the people from ancient history use for viewing?
This is hands down the best video of the 2024 solar eclipse. You are greatly appreciated for taking the time and money and initiative to do this. Thank you!
I've waited for 20 years for this moment. It was worth the drive and the hassle of dealing with traffic on the way home. I'd do it all over again. Thanks for sharing your experience. I'll never forget it.
I can relate to this video completely. It had become a bit stressful but it was all worth the highly detailed images and experiencing the eclipse with friends in the end. Nice work!
I was on a beach of Lake Erie in Canada. This is a huge lake and is like looking at an endless ocean view. To the south west the dark shadow was on the water and moving towards us very fast . The thrill you get as you see the day turn to night when the shadow rushes in. I have a few pictures from cell phone through a welder mask but i really appreciate this video's awesome views.
Thank you. Beautiful work, you brought that enthusiasm right back into my heart. I drove my son (who was born during a lunar eclipse) and I to Vermont for the event and it was worth all the hours in traffic. We both enjoy watching the heavens, but your cameras capture way more than we could have alone. I’m sending this video to him right away ; )
You put a lot of work into this project and I salute you for it. Well done! I was lucky enough to see it at my house near Plattsburgh NY and it was magical!
THE BEST I've seen! Thank you for all your work and for sharing it with all of us! Was a pretty special day and I also will never forget it. Thanks again! Excellent job!! Diggin ur channel in Dallas
Great pictures! Especially the last one. Thank you for all your work to record the event. This video is going straight to my "Keep Me" list! (I watched from the New Palestine cemetery in Indiana.)
The sun is said to 92 to 93,000 miles from the Earth. And the same two body guards that we can see, stick closer than a brother! 😂 Not to mention with our 20/20 vision we simply would not be able to see the it. 🫥
@@mustaffa1611 I see you suffer from chemtarditis. Do you actually not know the 'science' of why high-flying jet aircraft leave trails of ice crystals behind them?

Yeah, it just felt so strange. I also lost track of time during it too. And since I knew it was only a fleeting event, it both felt like it was going to end any second and like it lasted forever.
Thank you for your time and effort. In your documentation, you will forever have the memory encapsulated for us all. I was very near you, between Carbondale, Illinois and Cape Girardeau, Missouri. The 360° sunset is the thing that surprised me most. I'm instantly subscribed, thumbs up, shared and liked. Thank you Kyle.

That was amazing! Thanks for sharing this amazing work & emotional experience. And to say "we" as you do, shows just how pretty amazing you are, in your passion & person 😊
Thank you , brother I am very appreciative that you took the time to share a wonderful event , more less to share with us not as fortunate.. may Yah bless 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.
NASA is not Hebrew and does not mean to deceive. It is clear you do not speak or know how this language works but on a simple understanding N A S A is an acronym and not a word!
@@Larth. Glad some people know. I don't know much about the Hebrew language os spoken but I know we don't live in a fake medium for sure unless someone can explain how we live in a pressurized atmosphere without a container of some sort smh it's the necessary antecedent
@@hmgissinghe’s right, and you’re also right. He was wrong about the spelling but the pronunciation was correct. Many things have the potential to be true at the same time.
Excellent work Kyle. Spectacular! Thank You for sharing! We had a perfect view of totality here in Texas. I believe this may be the most incredible thing I have ever seen.
SPECTACULAR footage !!! THANK YOU for all your research & planning to share all this with those of us who couldn't experience this ourselves. Yours is the best that I've seen, more complete from beginning to end, ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!!
This is TRULY incredible and amazing! I'm so happy that you got these images and shared them with us all! I was in totality in NYS. But we were completely cloud covered. I didn't get to "see it", but I did get to experience total darkness. And words cannot describe how amazing it was. Thank you again!
Just found your channel - we seemed to have very similar experiences! This was a great watch, really nice Ha time lapses. I have yet to process mine. Subbed.

Awesome, thanks:) we had partial cloudy weather where we were in Palmyra, but it was still AMAZING!!! because of the clouds we didn't even need our glasses. Totality was AWESOME, regardless of being able to see it, we were able to experience it. Definitely didn't disappoint, but it's cool to see what we missed, so thanks for sharing
Wow! You’ve some amazing gear, stuff that a photographer like me can only dream about. It’s obvious that your gear and you (the most important piece of gear) did an outstanding job! Thank you for sharing. 🤙🏼🌹

I will be purchasing not just a free download. You deserve something in return. I drove to totality and bought a telescope. I minored in photography in college and knew there was no way I could capture what I wanted. I was just there in the moment and knew that I would find something truly special from someone else I was able to dedicate more time and effort. I am just happy that I found you because you definitely dedicated the time and effort. Keep doing what you’re doing because you’re killing it
This was beautiful! A really excellent job. All your preparation was amazing. I love photography myself but I just never got to any huge level in it so I enjoyed this vicariously through you! This is the best I've seen of the eclipse and the different elements of it that you caught!! Thank you for your efforts and talent!!
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 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.
Really amazing. I’m on the east coast and wasn’t able to get out to where totality was going to be. Your footage is so great for those of us that missed it. Thank you for posting your amazing work!
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.
My wife thought I was crazy with 3. I used my dashcam, cell phone, and a 35 MM DSLR. The 35MM worked the best. I don't have video software to enlarge/edit the cell or dashcam. Very nice work.
I planned from 2017 to 2024 to ensure my kids got to see it... what an amazing experience, lucky for my my second total eclipse... Every man, woman and child should have this experience. Thanks for what you do!

Yes, the moon is a spherical celestial body, but from the footage, how could you 'easily see it was a sphere'? Wouldn't a round disk block out the sun's light in exactly the same way as a sphere?
Thanks for capturing this! I was 30 miles NE at Trails End Ranch in Marquand MO. I studied the statistical weather data and decided it was the best chance. I didn't have a good feeling about TX, and for good reason! I was super nervous about those early morning clouds, too.
Yeah! Odd that we kind of got the inversion where the weather was good up north, but poor down in south. We did get that slot in the clouds though that even let DFW get it's view of Totality.
Great pics Kyle. I understand the excitement. I was in Plattsburg NY, and it was overwhelming. I was so wrapped up in Totality, that I forgot to adjust my exposure, so my pics were a little blown out, but still cool.
Awesome video. Your vibe and excitement is palpable. People who weren’t able to witness totality have a hard time understanding those of us that did. This is something for which there really are no words. Photos and videos of the event, don’t do it justice. This is something that you had to be present for in order to “understand”. And I use the word understand lightly because I’m still not fully sure what it was that I saw. I have to give you credit. I had one camera and I managed to take 11 shots of totality. When we got to 100%, I was stunned and almost frozen in place by what I was looking at. I had to force myself to look away in order to start taking pictures. And then during the 3 mins and 32 seconds, I found myself looking up and not paying too much attention to my camera. How you were able to manage 8 cameras, I have no idea but I’m glad you did. Great work.
Thank you! It really was something else. And yeah I was stresssssssssed XD. I fortunately got the cameras all recording/running, with one exception, before totality started. A funny thing happened though after I first tried to check my camera as we transitioned into totality. I didn't know how long it took me to double check it (probably ~15 seconds) but I had no idea how much time had passed. So all of totality felt like it could end any second, but also like it went on forever...
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.

Thank you so much for making this video!! You and I both reacted the same exact way when totality started lol i have a video of me saying damn near down to the second the same reactionary words haha the eclipse is something i will never forget and something that i didnt know that i needed. I cannot stop thinking about the first people and how they were terrified as i stood there speechless in awe. I felt so small but so close to the sky at the same time... i cant put it into words and ill never forget that feeling. Thanks again!!
I appreciate seeing the solar panel graph! I watched the eclipse from here in Denver and I didn’t notice the drop in brightness but it freaked out a friend’s dog! I know you were pretty busy at the time but did any wildlife behavior changes stand out to you during totality?
Oh hey! Yeah, the brightness really starts dipping when you get to ~80% coverage. It feels like someone slid the dimmer down and things look less vibrant. Interesting that it messed with your friend's dog. Was he barking, or running around? I didn't notice any wildlife changes, but that's because I was a bit stunned by totality. You're on the money there lol
Amazing. Thank you for all your hard work and sharing with us your beautiful photos. You're an amazing young man and I really wish you every success. ♥️
People like you allow people like me to just live in the moment. I'm not worried about capturing photos or anything like that because I know folks like you will do such a better job than I ever could. Thank you for your dedication to the craft.
Very nicely stated! And, great work!
Yes. I used to do astrophotography. But nothing like this. 1 telescope, 1 camera. This is some serious equipment 😊.
Background full of Chemtrails….
I was worried no one caught the big red ball and wish I took pics. but now I dont care again since he caught the "prominence". It was odd to get a symmetrical "ruby" with the diamond ring. If youre a believer then youre like yup, end times. I was chill with a simple oroboros but then they threw the eyes of Mot eating the earth and I said yo thats bussin. On god. FR FR.
The diamond ring composite is a work of art. For those of us who could not be there, thank you
YOU HAVE LOST YOUR WAY INDEED.
Go look at Bruce sees all he was in a fantastic place with a wild telescope ,you can see fire of the sun in totality .
Hey I'm The guy who sold you the two Celestron units a few months back, I hope they were able to get put to good use!
Hey! Thanks again for those! One of them is holding the Hydrogen Alpha scope in the video! Couldn't have done that without you! And the other I've been using for some satellite reading projects back at my apt, but I'm still troubleshooting some signal strength issues there...
Both getting some good use, so thank you again!
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.

I’ve been in the area of totality once… feelings of horror were not ever felt in the slightest.
Awesome is the word I use. Absolutely AWEsome!!
Yeah, there is something very eerie about how its suddenly getting much darker, colder, and quieter. But then you look up and it's just pure awe. It gave me a different type of emotion that I can't quite describe... and when it was over, I was almost depressed at the fact that I will never get to witness it again.
I think maybe the primitive part of our brain feels the fear of day turning into night. Imagine big nocturnal predators waking and trying to grab breakfast!
I am in tears. I am so happy for you, that you planned something so difficult and pulled it off!!
I hope you cry those tears of JOY! You deserve it! ❤

I don’t know why but it has always made my heart smile to see someone so passionate about something. My son is that way about fishing. Nice to see.

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?

No ,brucessesall wild picture n video .
These are THE BEST photos I have seen of the eclipse. Saw it with my own eyes. SO cool to see that prominence with the naked eye and see it here in full detail. Thank you
Your energy and enthusiasm is contagious! Incredible work!!!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! And hopefully I can share more stuff like this with you in the future!
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!
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!
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!
Terrific results my friend. Unfortunately too many people brush off totality and it’s so much more than you expected. I was not going to take any photos and just bask in the experience but when I realized I could see the pink glowing prominences I grabbed my camera with a 500mm and was rewarded with a beautiful image after bracketing down 4.5 EV. ✌️
Nice! Fast on the trigger haha.
Fantastic! I have been waiting 7 yrs for this event. I did get to see the ring of fire in San Antonio and then this eclipse in Waxahachie Tx. There is nothing like being under that event. Thanks for sharing the amazing results of all the work you did and STRESS you were willing to endure. 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
The eclipse is such an awesome event. Seeing your excitement alongside it is even cooler. Keep rocking!
I think its crazy how the emotions to the eclipe from photographers and people who understand the event are universal. I also had trouble even getting words out after it was over.
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.
22 HOURS. Jesus Christ lol. Oh yeah Binos sound excellent for totality. So could you vaguely make out the Earth-shine on the dark side of the moon?
Sounds like your hooked 😂
During 99% and totality it felt like the outdoors transformed into an imax theater. It was so strange and amazing
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 . . . ✌️😎
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.
Best photos I have seen! Beautiful job!
Awesome video Kyle! I drove to Vermont from Virginia to experience this eclipse. You are right. Photos and video do not capture the magic and overwhelming feelings of seeing it in person. Nicely done.
I drove from MA to Vermont
Thanks!
Where in VT? I also drove to VT to see it, from south-central PA. My family and I watched it from Cohen Park on the bank of Lake Champlain.
Without special lenses to watch an eclipse. They are pretty unspectacular. Makes me wonder what, if anything at all, did the people from ancient history use for viewing?
It doesn’t do it any justice. It was a spiritual experience for me.
Kyle, you are the most awesome, bad ass sort of nerd. I loved your video. Thanks for dorking out thoroughly and completely. Keep up the good work.
This was Amazing thank you for all your dedication.
Genuine video with solid work done. Good job dude
Thank you!
Nice job, that last composite is stunning and thank You for making it.
Now a new sub I appreciate your attention to details.
Great video I'm definitely going to watch more! Subbed! These are easily the best captures of the eclipse I've seen
Awesome, thank you!
This is hands down the best video of the 2024 solar eclipse. You are greatly appreciated for taking the time and money and initiative to do this. Thank you!
I've been searching everywhere for this content! I love everything you did!
Glad you enjoy it!
I've waited for 20 years for this moment. It was worth the drive and the hassle of dealing with traffic on the way home. I'd do it all over again. Thanks for sharing your experience. I'll never forget it.
I can relate to this video completely. It had become a bit stressful but it was all worth the highly detailed images and experiencing the eclipse with friends in the end. Nice work!
I was on a beach of Lake Erie in Canada. This is a huge lake and is like looking at an endless ocean view. To the south west the dark shadow was on the water and moving towards us very fast . The thrill you get as you see the day turn to night when the shadow rushes in. I have a few pictures from cell phone through a welder mask but i really appreciate this video's awesome views.
Which setup # was your Hydrogen Alpha setup? Super impressive shots. Best I have seen so far!!!
Setup #3, the Lunt 50mm with a ZWO ASI 120mm for the camera. It's been working for me really well. The Lunt does have some quirks to it though.
Thank you. Beautiful work, you brought that enthusiasm right back into my heart. I drove my son (who was born during a lunar eclipse) and I to Vermont for the event and it was worth all the hours in traffic. We both enjoy watching the heavens, but your cameras capture way more than we could have alone. I’m sending this video to him right away ; )
You put a lot of work into this project and I salute you for it. Well done! I was lucky enough to see it at my house near Plattsburgh NY and it was magical!
Right in the backyard, sounds like a dream come true
Absolutely right
I came from Pennsylvania to Plattsburgh to see the totality! You have a lovely town haha
I got it all in my backyard as well, lucky I had it home, Montreal, Canada
LOVE LOVE LOVE your energy and passion! That was half the magic of watching! Thank you so much for all your work!
Amazing Kyle... you did it...wonderful
Absolutely beautiful images; the hydrogen alpha time-lapses are stunning, thank you so much for sharing your images and story!
Fantastic video. All that work paid off!
THE BEST I've seen! Thank you for all your work and for sharing it with all of us! Was a pretty special day and I also will never forget it. Thanks again! Excellent job!!
Diggin ur channel in Dallas
Great work. Beautiful shots!
Great pictures! Especially the last one. Thank you for all your work to record the event. This video is going straight to my "Keep Me" list! (I watched from the New Palestine cemetery in Indiana.)
It’s ashamed you are not more excited about your work! lol. Wonderful work. Blows mine away.
Thanks for sharing your enthusiasm, joy and results of your videography and photography. 👌 awesome
9:18 gotta love the CGI. it would be more realistic if they added the chemtrails yet somehow they always forget
Had them here in FL like most days & some nights😳
The sun is said to 92 to 93,000 miles from the Earth. And the same two body guards that we can see, stick closer than a brother! 😂 Not to mention with our 20/20 vision we simply would not be able to see the it. 🫥
@@motherof3pearls huh?
@@mustaffa1611 I see you suffer from chemtarditis.
Do you actually not know the 'science' of why high-flying jet aircraft leave trails of ice crystals behind them?

Hard work and beautiful shot aside, I absolutely loved hearing you struggle to find the words to describe the experience. That's how I felt.
Yeah, it just felt so strange. I also lost track of time during it too. And since I knew it was only a fleeting event, it both felt like it was going to end any second and like it lasted forever.
Thank you for your time and effort.
In your documentation, you will forever have the memory encapsulated for us all.
I was very near you, between Carbondale, Illinois and Cape Girardeau, Missouri.
The 360° sunset is the thing that surprised me most.

That image at the end is incredible
Thank you , brother I am very appreciative that you took the time to share a wonderful event , more less to share with us not as fortunate.. may Yah bless you !
"...horrifying and exciting..."
I felt the same. Beautiful, terrible, amazing, horrifying, magnificent... everything, all at once.
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.
Couldn't help myself lol.
I wouldn't put faith in NASA.
As NASA is hebrew and means "deceive"
Firmament is also hebrew and means "solid dome".
NASA is not Hebrew and does not mean to deceive. It is clear you do not speak or know how this language works but on a simple understanding N A S A is an acronym and not a word!
@Larth. Yes the word is nasha
@@Larth. Glad some people know. I don't know much about the Hebrew language os spoken but I know we don't live in a fake medium for sure unless someone can explain how we live in a pressurized atmosphere without a container of some sort smh it's the necessary antecedent
@@hmgissinghe’s right, and you’re also right. He was wrong about the spelling but the pronunciation was correct. Many things have the potential to be true at the same time.
Excellent work Kyle. Spectacular! Thank You for sharing! We had a perfect view of totality here in Texas. I believe this may be the most incredible thing I have ever seen.
SPECTACULAR footage !!!
THANK YOU for all your research & planning to share all this with those of us who couldn't experience this ourselves.
Yours is the best that I've seen, more complete from beginning to end, ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!!
This is TRULY incredible and amazing! I'm so happy that you got these images and shared them with us all! I was in totality in NYS. But we were completely cloud covered. I didn't get to "see it", but I did get to experience total darkness. And words cannot describe how amazing it was. Thank you again!
Just found your channel - we seemed to have very similar experiences! This was a great watch, really nice Ha time lapses. I have yet to process mine. Subbed.
Knowledge, preparation, hard work and enthusiasm. Terrific !
Tremendous work. Are you selling images of the diamond ring composite by any chance? 😊

@@kylemccaslin Thank you! Ordering soon 👍 Keep up the great work
Awesome, thanks:) we had partial cloudy weather where we were in Palmyra, but it was still AMAZING!!! because of the clouds we didn't even need our glasses. Totality was AWESOME, regardless of being able to see it, we were able to experience it. Definitely didn't disappoint, but it's cool to see what we missed, so thanks for sharing
Of course, I kept saying no glasses needed. But, alas, nobody listened to me! 😂
Wow! You captured a masterpiece! New subscriber. TY for doing this, and your excitement is contagious!🌞🌻🌝
Thank you so much for sharing these once in a lifetime photos ❤️ You ROCK!!!
Wow! You’ve some amazing gear, stuff that a photographer like me can only dream about. It’s obvious that your gear and you (the most important piece of gear) did an outstanding job! Thank you for sharing. 🤙🏼🌹
The amount of time and resources to make this video demands a like! You got one from me sr. Thank you!

I will be purchasing not just a free download. You deserve something in return. I drove to totality and bought a telescope. I minored in photography in college and knew there was no way I could capture what I wanted. I was just there in the moment and knew that I would find something truly special from someone else I was able to dedicate more time and effort. I am just happy that I found you because you definitely dedicated the time and effort. Keep doing what you’re doing because you’re killing it
What an outstanding video. You did great job addressing both the technical and emotional aspects of that experience.
Closest representation to what I experienced. Thank you for this.
Kyle you did an amazing job. Thank you for sharing this adventure with everyone. It’s really a life time memory. Thank you.
This was beautiful! A really excellent job. All your preparation was amazing. I love photography myself but I just never got to any huge level in it so I enjoyed this vicariously through you! This is the best I've seen of the eclipse and the different elements of it that you caught!! Thank you for your efforts and talent!!
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 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.
Sounds awesome!
Really amazing. I’m on the east coast and wasn’t able to get out to where totality was going to be. Your footage is so great for those of us that missed it. Thank you for posting your amazing work!
That was so great. The eclipse is a once in a lifetime type of event. So exciting. Very happy for you for your success. Simply beautiful.
Yes it was!
This was great !!!!! Awesome footage - thank you for share ing the experience!!!!
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.
Amazing work! What did you use to stabilize the hydrogen alpha photos? Thanks for sharing!
Davinci Resolve's Planar Tracker
The last image was awesome! Outstanding work!
This was amazing. I feel you. To experience this event in your lifetime.. priceless…!
Really is nothing else like it
Thank you. So great you managed to capture what you did. Best video on the eclipse 2024 I've seen !
My wife thought I was crazy with 3.
I used my dashcam, cell phone, and a 35 MM DSLR.
The 35MM worked the best.
I don't have video software to enlarge/edit the cell or dashcam.
Very nice work.
You're passionate, an enthusiast, not crazy.
I planned from 2017 to 2024 to ensure my kids got to see it... what an amazing experience, lucky for my my second total eclipse... Every man, woman and child should have this experience. Thanks for what you do!
I would love to buy a print of that final picture you made. Please reach out with your price. Stunning work that is worthy of some coin. Cheers!
Agree get job, how can we go about purchasing one?
I replied with the same! Digital would probably be easier for him to sell 🤷🏼♀️ I’d buy a print though for sure!
@@irona7054 I led with print because it allows him to control the content better, perhaps. Too many freeloaders out there for downloads in some cases.

Great job man! What gets me is how much bigger than the earth the prominences are. Universe is freaking amazing! Thanks for the upload. 🤘
Nice shots, bro. It was cool to see the definition of the moon. You could easily see it was a sphere.
Yes, the moon is a spherical celestial body, but from the footage, how could you 'easily see it was a sphere'?
Wouldn't a round disk block out the sun's light in exactly the same way as a sphere?
Thanks for capturing this! I was 30 miles NE at Trails End Ranch in Marquand MO. I studied the statistical weather data and decided it was the best chance. I didn't have a good feeling about TX, and for good reason! I was super nervous about those early morning clouds, too.
Yeah! Odd that we kind of got the inversion where the weather was good up north, but poor down in south. We did get that slot in the clouds though that even let DFW get it's view of Totality.
Great pics Kyle. I understand the excitement. I was in Plattsburg NY, and it was overwhelming. I was so wrapped up in Totality, that I forgot to adjust my exposure, so my pics were a little blown out, but still cool.
Awesome video. Your vibe and excitement is palpable. People who weren’t able to witness totality have a hard time understanding those of us that did. This is something for which there really are no words. Photos and videos of the event, don’t do it justice. This is something that you had to be present for in order to “understand”. And I use the word understand lightly because I’m still not fully sure what it was that I saw.
I have to give you credit. I had one camera and I managed to take 11 shots of totality. When we got to 100%, I was stunned and almost frozen in place by what I was looking at. I had to force myself to look away in order to start taking pictures. And then during the 3 mins and 32 seconds, I found myself looking up and not paying too much attention to my camera. How you were able to manage 8 cameras, I have no idea but I’m glad you did. Great work.
Thank you! It really was something else.
And yeah I was stresssssssssed XD. I fortunately got the cameras all recording/running, with one exception, before totality started. A funny thing happened though after I first tried to check my camera as we transitioned into totality. I didn't know how long it took me to double check it (probably ~15 seconds) but I had no idea how much time had passed. So all of totality felt like it could end any second, but also like it went on forever...
By far my favorite eclipse video. That outro pic was perfection. Thanks for the work you put in.
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.
Beautiful Job, Young Man!!!!!!Thank You!!!!!
Thank you for all the work you put into this! I'm glad I saw the video!!! Great work! Subscribed!!

Thank you so much for making this video!! You and I both reacted the same exact way when totality started lol i have a video of me saying damn near down to the second the same reactionary words haha the eclipse is something i will never forget and something that i didnt know that i needed. I cannot stop thinking about the first people and how they were terrified as i stood there speechless in awe. I felt so small but so close to the sky at the same time... i cant put it into words and ill never forget that feeling. Thanks again!!
It really was an experience like no other
That was amazing, I loved that...great job!
I appreciate seeing the solar panel graph! I watched the eclipse from here in Denver and I didn’t notice the drop in brightness but it freaked out a friend’s dog!
I know you were pretty busy at the time but did any wildlife behavior changes stand out to you during totality?
Oh hey! Yeah, the brightness really starts dipping when you get to ~80% coverage. It feels like someone slid the dimmer down and things look less vibrant. Interesting that it messed with your friend's dog. Was he barking, or running around?
I didn't notice any wildlife changes, but that's because I was a bit stunned by totality. You're on the money there lol
So many excellent photos! When you did the overlay to increase the visibility of the dark side was very cool. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you thank you!
Amazing. Thank you for all your hard work and sharing with us your beautiful photos. You're an amazing young man and I really wish you every success. ♥️
