Watching the 2017 in East Tennessee | 2017 Solar Eclipse

This is an older video I'm re-uploading today in celebration of the April 8, 2024 solar eclipse! In August of 2017, my family journeyed to Friendsville, Tennessee, to watch the total solar eclipse from the lake. Actually, this was the very place where Jill and I got married, so it was really special being back for this!
We filmed and photographed it with two Sony a6500's and I also had my drone doing circles in the air to show the changing landscape. I'm so glad I had the drone as those shots ended up being my favorite, especially right when the moment of totality comes and you see the rapidly changing light on the clouds.
I didn't really know what I was doing - as you can see from the number of shots that are blurry or blown out. But still a fun video that I wanted to share with you all on this special day!
