eclipse video

I've just sussed out how to upload a video onto Youtube (been trying for 2 weeks.....) Anyway, it's there now if anyone wants to have a look:

The camera was looking out to the horizon and about 4 mins in to totality, I picked it up and scanned round a bit.
Clear skies (if only....)

Hi Bernie
Great video, I really enjoyed it, wish I was there for that wonderful event.

Can you share your knowledge on how the video was placed on YouTube, its something I thought of regarding videos of meteors taken from Ireland but did not get around to actually uploading them and figuring out how too.

Thanks for sharing that Bernie.
Can I ask where exactly was the ship, was it near Iwo Jima ?

Well, you have to have a Youtube account and I went to my home page where you can click on 'upload' on the right hand side of the page and it gives you instructions from there. However, I tried several times before having any success and even then, it took over 2 and a half hours to upload which wasn't the best seeing as I have to use the pc at work.

Yes Dave, we passed Iwo Jima on the morning of the eclipse. I have all the co-ordinates, altitude of the eclipse and even the speed of ship at home but won't be in the office again till next Tuesday so will post them here then if you like.

Great, thanks Bernie for the information, I will give it a go!
