Total Solar Eclipse April 8th, 2024 time lapse with detailed close-ups in 4k!

I finally made the proper time lapse with the Sun/Moon correctly oriented ( I got several comments about that in the raw footage video and was expecting that ). There's planes, Prominences, Magnetic Field Lines and even Black Drop Effects from the Lunar Terrain!

I've never heard of the Black drop effect" before, that's wild! This is fantastic work.

Oh this is absolutely gorgeous! Out of all the eclipse timelapses i've seen out there, this is one of the best! It's so smooth and camera adjustments are barely noticeable unless you look hard enough, and there's also that rainbow-like gradient on the diffraction spikes - not the same, but reminds me of this rainbow "ring" that forms right before C2 (diamond ring). Seeing that in person was mindboggling, and i haven't been able to find any videos out there that have something even remotely similar to the in-person experience. This is so well made.

OMG. Thanks for sharing this @kyzercube! ❣❣❣ Your footage is gorgeous. I wish I had that level of quality when I shared my experience too. You've got yourself a subscriber. 👍

Great footage! It looks like it was completely clear for you in Missouri! And cool that you caught a plane going over the sun!

[GJPG]

I just continue to be amazed that we live at such a time that the distances and sizes cause the apparent diameters to match so perfectly!
(I couldn't see "de plane" come out at the other side!)

Love it, Best Ive seen!

If an "amateur" can get this superb quality, imagine how good the best of the best is. For our sun worshipping elites of this world lol

the next total eclipse in my location is in 2042🙃

0:50 weird filter behaviour? I think its popping filter on and off very fast

2:32 nice baily’s beads :)

[schnuffi-dp]

i hope i see it in 12 august 2026 in spain

[gingersmedia]

what star tracker and focal length were you setup with? looking to invest in upgraded gear for when I shoot the one in 2030

Nice work. I rented a 800mm lens and didn’t get this far. Did you zoom in during totality or was that your editing and cropping here? Even if it’s the latter that is really good resolution

Bro's picture of the solar eclipse is better than mine. 😭

[CajunReveler]

Now isn't it much easier on your eyes to watch this from a screen instead of practically burning your eyes with the sun?
Edit: ignore this comment, it was kinda stupid

hi kyzercube! i’m an artist currently working on an EP that is scheduled to release sometime in the near future. i’ve been looking for clear footage of the eclipse from this year to use in a promo video, and yours is by far my favorite!

all this to ask, do i have your permission to use this footage in a promotional video? i will absolutely credit you and link to your account. no worries if not.

thanks!
