Big Muddy Total Solar Eclipse 2024 - plus some ambiance.


 

I'm a bit late to the party posting this but I thought I'd go ahead and share another take on the 2024.Apr.8 Eclipse.
There are some bookmarks in the video description in case the video feels a bit long:


Taken in Murphysboro, IL with Sony a6500, Williams Optics Zenithstar 61, on a poorly-daytime-aligned Celestron AVX mount.
Murphysboro is very close to Carbondale, IL which was the crossover point for the 2017 & 2024 eclipses.? They sold stickers saying: "Twice in a lifetime".? We had a really good time camping at the Big Muddy Brewery for 4 nights after doing a u-turn on our way to Texas and heading to IL instead.

Thanks for watching!
Peter.

Thanks so much, these comments really made my day!? I learned a lot (much of it about how to edit video).? I later added some ambient music for a bit of enhancement but, sadly, I can't update the YouTube video.? :o)
