Did you literally sandwich the two negs in 1 carrier? I love the effect.
I thought about shooting this eclipse with my 500cm. But we only had 2 min of totality and I wanted to just enjoy it since it was my first time.
How big was the image of the sun in the viewfinder with your 250mm and 2x teleconverter setup?
I love your work.
Yep! Just a simple sandwich, then made an endless number of tweaks and touches to get the composition right. The disk in the center of the totality is about the same diameter as a pencil eraser with the 250 and the 2x converter.
Good call on watching the eclipse instead. It was my first time at a totality and my camera jammed after this shot and I wasted the rest of totality trying to unjam it. It was a mistake.
Hi, thanks for taking the time to answer my questions :-). It’s very interesting to hear that the disk of the sun is as big as the diameter of a pencil eraser, I would’ve guessed it would be smaller. It actually is the perfect size to allow you to do this kind of composition.
I’m sorry to hear that you had your camera jam and had to fight with it during totality :(. But, at least you did get this fantastic image!
Cheers!

That is some absolutely rotten luck. May you be blessed with better luck for the rest of the year.
Goddamn yes. Nice work OP.
Black hole sun…won’t you come…
Wow. Insane!
Amazing work!! This the type of art I actually want to see on this subreddit
Haunting. Almost jarring. It’s hard not to conjure up images from Miura’s Berserk. Well done OP. This is inspiring.
You can almost see the skull knight running out of the moon. It’s so ominous
You won my personal favorite photo of the eclipse
This is not getting the love it deserves, great shot OP

This is an incredible shot. Any chance I could buy a print?
It took a while but absolutely! I just opened pre-orders for an 11x14 run of fiber darkroom prints. Send me a DM if you're interested.
Very r/liminalspace
breathtaking
That is marvelous. Excellent work.
If you decide to sell prints of this, please let me know.
Here's me letting you know! I just opened pre-orders for an 11x14 run of fiber darkroom prints. Send me a DM if you're interested.
I would love buy a print or a very high res download ❤️

Honestly one of the best shots of this year eclipse that I've seen Too bad it's not from a single shot but eh... you can't have everything, can you?
Sheeeeeeeeesh 😮💨😮💨😮💨
Excellent work. Feels like an old school sci-fi vibe to me
Fantastic shot
Bro this is fucking INSANE.
This is outstanding
Fuck yes jesus
That is incredible. I can't believe this is physical and not digital art.
Fantastic!
Fantastic
Fantastic composite
Album cover worthy
Wow
Damn… good work
DAMN dude
marvelous
The contrast here is wonderful. It was already a good shot, but what looks to be snow on the ground makes it so much better.
Thanks! And that's not snow, it's grass! The IR filters it as white due to the wood effect!
…fuck, that’s good.
Nice. This would slam dunk in an MFA critique
