I was having trouble trying to flip and rotate this GIF I made to post on here, my video on social media is the right orientation and doesn't suffer from quality loss.

 

Here is a Timelapse of the Solor Eclipse I made from 110 photos. Came out pretty good, I didn't take photos at specific times, just randomly throughout the eclipse and wasn't planning on doing a Timelapse, but I wanted too and had enough photos to try.

 

One of the reasons I got my scope last month was to see the eclipse, I didn't know I would find myself enjoying astrophotography so much, but I'm happy with the results I have been getting so far and can't wait to get more amazing shots!

Nice!  If you find yourself in (or near) the path of the 8 Apr 2024 Total Solar Eclipse, you should do another GIF!  smile.gif

I was telling my wife we should take a family road trip next year. 🤣

Im bored waiting for the rocket launch in CA so I reprocessed the gif. I corrected the orientation and the quality seems better.
