This footage was filmed with a Moto G7 smarphone, which was the ony thing handy at the time. Lightning is notoriously difficult to capture well on video, mostly due to the rolling shutter (which causes flashing and blacked-out areas) but the little device did remarkably well for a smartphone camera!

This doesn't really fit this channel's theme so I may delete it eventually, but for now it might be fun for those of you who play this game or like Angry Birds in general. . It will also be posted on the correct channel (see channel link above).
These scenes were filmed with a Sony a7iii and Cannon 100-400mm lens at realtime and 120fps. The resulting video was processed into still image sequences and then composited to yield artistic results where we can actually trace the flight paths of individual insects.

Once the bugs have run the gauntlet on the ground, the air isn't much safer. Winged ternmites are weak fliers barely and able to stear, so it's not too difficult for a skilled aerobat to catch them in mid-air. Sparrow-sized birds and dragonflies appear out of nowhere and start snapping them up.
These scenes were filmed in Santa Clarita, California on October 14th, 2018 and capture the event in 240 frame-per-second slow motion using a Sony FS-700RX high-speed camera. In real time, the action is happening 10 times faster than you see here, so as you can imagine, keeping the camera pointed at the right spot at the right time while maintaining focus is quite a challenge. As with most photography, shooting tons of shots is the key to getting a few that turn out okay. It took over a hundred tries to get just these few. The dragonflies were the hardest - they're small and fly at 20-35 miles per hour so they are nearly impossible to track.

So why does the "Blood Moon" glow reddish-orange? The reason is the same as why sunsets on Earth are often a beautiful red-orange color - "Rayleigh scattering" of light waves. As it turns out, Earth's atmosphere (about 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and 1% other gasses/particles) is pretty good at absorbing and reflecting certain frequencies (colors) of light, while letting others pass more easily. Higher frequency/energy color such as violet, blue, and green is absorbed and scattered (sent off in different directions) by air molecules (which is also the reason why the sky appears blue) while lower frequency/energy yellow, orange and red light tends to pass more-or less straight through. This means that the more of Earth's atmosphere the light has to travel through, the more of the green-blue-violet colors are filtered out.
So what does Earth's atmosphere have to do with the moon, and why is a "Blood Moon" different than a "normal" total lunar eclipse? ...During a "normal" total lunar eclipse, Earth's shadow more-or less passes directly across the lunar surface, shading it in complete darkness. However, if Earth's shadow only grazes the Moon, only sunlight which has passed through Earth's atmosphere (and has thus been filtered of most green-blue-violet light) makes it to the Moon, essentially casting a sunset onto the Moon! This would be an amazing sight from the lunar surface as well.
The first segment shows an 828-frame time lapse sequence for the entire event as seen though a 17mm f/4.0 lens at 15 second intervals (Canon 5D Mk2). The following video clips show the progress of the eclipse as seen through an 800mm Celestron telescope with 2x optical teleconverter and Sony a7III mirrorless camera, attached to the telescope with a T-Mount adapter.
While never really crystal clear due to the hazy high cloud coverage, the lower clouds managed to stear clear of the fully eclipsed disc a few times. A couple of panned still images taken with long exposure help show the Moon's detail.
Conditions were soggy as temperatures fell, resulting in a heavy dew accumulating on just about every surface, making it necessary to use a home-made warm air blower to keep the Canon's lens from fogging up. The telescope fared a little better being partially protected by a short lens hood, but by event's end it was starting to fog-up as well and needed to be wiped by hand. I guess I'll have to make another blower!

I only had a short time to film these delicate creations, for as soon as the sunlight landed upon them they became watery-translucent and began to melt immediately. Within 30 minutes or so, they had completely vanished, leaving only a few photos and video as evidence that they ever existed at all. Filmed with a Sony a7 III, Nikon D5100, and Canon HS300.

Hummingbirds typically hit 25-35mph in straght-line flight, but can reach speeds up to 58 mph in a dive, which can usually be seen (and more often HEARD) in spring as the males perform high-speed courship dives to impress their prospective perched mates. This translates to about 340 BL/S for a 3-inch-long bird @ 58 mph, and easily beats the Cheetah (26 BL/S), the Peregrine (304 BL/S), a fighter jet with afterburners (150 BL/S) and the Space Shuttle re-entry at 207 BL/S. Even in straight level flight at 30 mph the birds travel at a blistering 176 BL/S. They can easily tolerate 10g (10x the force of gravity) and their ultra-low mass allows for amazing acceleration, deceleration, direction change. Their high speed maneuverability is accomplished with simple thrust-vectering from highly specialized wings and wing muscles, able to flap in a wide degree of angles relative to their bodies.
All this speed is worthless if the senses and brain can't keep up with it, which implies that these birds may experience the world at a much faster speed than we do. Ironically, that means that most things around them are probably moving in slow motion from their point of view!
Filmed in Santa Clarita, California with a GoPro Hero 5 Black at 120 and 240 fps, realtime audio tracks included.
Many of these scenes can be seen in slow motion below..

In these scenes you'll watch hummingbirds hanging upside-down, missing their landings and "feeling" around for the perch, losing balance while feeding/preening, scratching those itchy places (note they actually reach behind their wings over their backs to reach their faces), sticking out their super-long tongues, and more.
One black-chinned male (seen at 1:02) was apparently new at using a feeder and took some time to figure out where to stick his beak to get at the nectar. After a few days he had it down and was feeding like a pro. One bird gets temporarily stuck in the feeder hole (1:33), while another stretches incredibly far to feed while perched instead of hovering (0:18).
Filmed in Santa Clarita, California with GoPro Hero5 and Sony FS-700RH cameras at 120 and 240 frames per second (respectively), the resulting playback at 24fps is up to 10 times slower than real life.

As spring progresses, more natural nectar sources become available for a short time and the feeder sees a lot less traffic, but that doesn't stop the birds from maintaining their territory and chasing off any other birds that try to feed there.
These tiny birds weight less than 1/4 ounce (2.5 - 4.5 grams is typical) but are very aggressive and surprisingly tough. Even though these fights appear pretty rough, the birds seldom hurt each other physically.
Filmed with a Sony FS700RH at 240fps and GoPro Hero 5 Black at 120fps, the resulting action is slowed down by 10x when played back at 24fps.

Fortunately, the birds rarely do any damage to each other, although their egos mmost certainly take a bruising! Filmed with a Sony FS700RH at 240fps and GoPro Hero 5 Black at 120fps, the resulting action is slowed down by 10x, giving us a better view of what would normally be just a blur.

The first sequence features long-trail compositing (using propreitary JCMDI workflows) which allows meteor streaks to remain in the frame for a few seconds so that they really stand out.
Sequence 2 is non-composited and shows the sky more clearly but at the cost making the meteor streaks last only 1/30th of a second, so you really have to pay attention to spot them. About mid-way through this sequence the video roll is paused to zoom-in on one particularly big and bright meteor.
The final sequence is a "no decay" composite in which any sky activity is accumulated into the scene as the sequence progresses. This results in a very "busy" but beautiful scene as stars, aircraft, satellites, and clouds trace their paths across the night sky.

In the first few sequences (right side of the frame) you can see the green and red lights of a drone flying around in the scene. Apparently someone was trying to capture an aerial view of the storm! The later scenes were filmed from a lical hilltop, providing a better view of the storm and a nice overview of the city, although the city lights tended to haze-up the overall image.

According to Wikipedia, a number of other countries use these aircraft as well, including Croatia, France, Greece, Italy, Malaysia, Morocco, and Spain.
The aircraft are crewed by two pilots, with seating for 9 additional personnel. It's powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW123AF turboprop engines, generating 2,380 static horsepower (1.775 Mega Watts) each. The plane has a wingspan of 93 feet, cruises at about 200 mph, and can scoop-up 1620 gallons (13,536 lbs) of water in about 12 seconds at 81 mph while skimming only about 1350 feet of water surface. In actual practice, scooping speed is more like 90 mph over a distance of 2000 ft. It's always better to have a little more airspeed and room to get the job done safely!
These scenes were filmed at Castaic Lake with a Sony FS700RH and 200mm lens while the aircraft were fighting the "La Tuna" wildfire near Glendale, California. The wind changed direction twice during this event resulting in the aircraft having to use three different approach patterns during the day. Fortunately, Castaic lake is shaped in such a way that it is easily navigated from 4 different directions as conditions change.

The eclipse starts slowly and unless one has the proper viewing equipment, it isn't obvious to the casual observer. However, as the eclipse approached 80% around 1pm, sunlight levels were noticeably subdued. At 90% - 98% sunlight levels were much like dusk, although the sky was still radiating the full bright blue of mid-day. As the last 2% of the sun was slowly covered, sunlight became more orange and dim while the sky still radiated its normal (although somewhat reduced) blue light. The planet Venus became bright and clear to the west, and other planets were probably visible as well although I was too busy to look for them at the time.
During the very short period of total eclipse ( starts at 1:18 ), I yanked the filter off of the camera while the intervalometer kept clicking away, and tried to take in as much of the event as possible. Solar prominences (the large, red "flares" seen on the right side of the sun were clearly visible to the naked eye and especially noticeable under magnification. While the insects are particularly noisy during the day in Tennessee, the chorus changed noticeably - crickets began singing and other nightly noises slowly increased, too. The lighting was particularly strange - like dusk but with a weird orange and blue tint. It's one of those things you just have to experience to see the full effect.
Just prior to the start of the event, I strapped a GoPro Hero5 Black to a tree on the hill and let film a time lapse ( starts at 4:11 ) at 5-second intervals of the whole event. Unfortunately, the GoPro kept adjusting its settings to maintain a consistent exposure level, so the gradual darkening and lightening of the sky and earth is not so apparent. However, the short duration of totality does show up well, as does the passing of the moon's shadow across the sky and clouds ( seen at 4:35 ), giving this sequence an interesting perspective.
Finally, as the eclipse waned, I spent a few minutes marveling at the crescent-shaped shadows all over the ground. One interesting effect of a non-circular light source is that any object which casts a shadow with a hole in it acts like a pin-hole camera, and projects an image in the shape of the light source (eclipsed Sun). A few of these images can be seen at 5:10 .
These scenes were filmed with a Canon 5D Mk2 (equipped with Baader Planetarium Solar Film filter), GoPro Hero5 Black, and Canon HS300 Digital Elph.

The actual emerging part only takes 60 seconds or so while the entire event takes about 8-10 minutes from the moment the pupal shell cracks-open until the butterfly completes the wing expansion process. Once the butterfly has pulled free of the chrysalis and is hanging in the clear, it begins pumping a clear greenish fluid into the wings' vein structure to expand them to full size. You can see the insect partially opening and closing its wings to help them expand straight and wrinkle-free. Once the wings are expanded, the butterfly remains still for two or more hours while the fluid and vein structure harden. After that, the insect is ready to fly. Females frequently mate during this wing hardening time, as the males patrol around the host plants looking for them. Males will usually remain still until their wings are done hardening, at which time they will take flight and start their life as an adult insect.

Unlike its eastern counterpart, the chrysalis phase of this deep-desert dwelling butterfly's life cycle can include a hibernation period (known as "diapause") which can last 7 years or more in drought conditions, so selecting a proper site is critical for survival.
The caterpillar can wander for several days searching for a suitable location which is shielded from predators, high winds, feezing winter cold, and daytime summer temperatures which can exceed 140 °F at ground level. In most cases, this species selects a rock crack or other crevice between or under large boulders to protect itself from the extreme conditions.
Next, the caterpillar must attach itself to the selected location, which can be a vertical surface or even upside-down under a rock. It begins by spinning a silken pad on the chosen surface with a small silk mound or "button" at the tail-end of the pad to which it will anchor its tail. This part of the process is already completed when filming was started for this series. Then, as shown in these scenes, it spins a silken loop around its midsection to secure the upper part of its body. The loop is attached to the surface on both sides of the caterpillar's body. It works back and forth from one side to the other, each time adding another strand to the loop which becomes noticeably thicker as 15-20 or more strands are added. The finished loop is quite thick and some of the individual strands can be seen. When finished spinning the loop, the caterpillar ducks its head under and into the loop, then works it down to the proper location on its body where it becomes captured in the folds of its skin. A couple of days later, pupation occurs as the caterpillar sheds its final skin to begin the chrysalis phase of its life cycle.
These scenes were filmed in high resolution 4K/UHD macro with a Sony FS700RH and Convergent Design Odyssey 7Q+ digital recorder. The camera angle was changed a number of times during the process to show the caterpillar's efforts in as much detail as possible.

These timelapse sequences filmed were with a GoPro Hero4 black 4K (reduced to full HD for this upload) at 1 and 2 second intervals, using the same pole cam setup as in 2015. These scenes were filmed May 2nd through May 11 in somewhat hot weather, so we see the birds all sprawled-out trying to lose some heat.

These first-look scenes were shot with a GoPro Hero 4 Black in full 4K (shown here in full 1080p HD for YouTube upload). Unfortunately the camera is a little too close so part of the frame is out of focus, hence the B-Reel designation. Subsequent scenes should be improved.

The sequence covers the last 17 hours of the pupal phase where the most conspicuous metamorphic changes take place inside the chrysalis. The brown-gray pupal shell color becomes translucent as the orange and black wing pattern develops. As eclosion (emerging) nears, the adult butterfly inside can easily be seen as it slowly separates from the pupal shell and finally breaks free.
Filmed with a Canon 5D Mk2 using a Canon MP-E 65mm super macro lens at 30-second intervals in 4K+ resolution. The frame rate in the short version has been slowed down during emerging sequence to help see the emerging event. The long version plays back at a consistent speed - 900x faster than real life.

These scenes show various extreme close-ups of a freshly emerged Gulf Fritillary butterfly. When viewed very close-up they aren't so cute, but definitely interesting none-the-less!

This is a Gulf Fritillary butterfly (Agraulis vanillae incarnata) caterpillar preparing for the next phase of its life cycle - the pupal phase, where it will transform itself into an adult butterfly.
The first scene shows the caterpillar selecting a site in which to pupate. Next, it spins a small mound of silk (AKA a button) on which to attach itself. The silk fibers are carefully woven and attached to the twig to provide a secure mounting spot where the caterpillar will spend the next few weeks. Once the button is finished, the caterpillar turns around to rest for a while (30-60 minutes is typical). This resting period may also allow the silk to properly "dry" or otherwise harden. Then, the caterpillar moves forward slowly, feeling around with its tail end for the silk button. On the caterpillar's tail is a surface called a "cremaster", which functions like the "hook" side of a velcro-like fastening system. The caterpillar can apparently detect the silk button as the cremaster hooks make contact and stick to the loop-like silk strands of the button - again similar to the velcro system. Once good contact is made, the caterpillar grinds its tail end into the silk, making a secure connection. The caterpillar then begins to relax and release its grip on the twig, eventually falling free of its hold except the cremaster. It will remain suspended by it tail in this way until it transforms into a pupa after a 1-2 days. More of this process to come...

These scenes were shot with a Sony FS700RH in 1080p HD Macro (displayed in this demo reel at full HD) in time lapse at 1 frame per second, resulting in a 30x faster than real time speed-up.

Over 2000 still images were collected every 20 minutes for 2-months to make this video. Time lapse sequence made from original Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) still images, courtesy of NOAA.GOV (public domain data). This view shows the northern hemisphere (United States) in an infra-red wavelength that is sensitive to water vapor in Earth's atmosphere (light areas are moist and dark is more dry) which is good for showing where storms/rain may be more likely as well as being visible in both day and night.

Captured with the Sony FS700R at 240fps in full HD (playback at 24fps = 10x slow-down), these interesting scenes show just how springy and flexible our feline companions can be.
"Catfish Hunter" absolutely LOVES this game. He'll drop everything and come a' runnin' when I break out this old fishing pole with a chunk of cloth tied to the end. He's allowed to catch it so he doesn't get too frustrated, but not too often or there's no challenge and he gets bored. You can actually see the look of frustration and satisfaction on his face when he misses and catches, respectively.

Filmed here in full 1080p HD with a Sony FS700RH at 240fps, the resulting video at 24fps yields a 10x slower than real life playback. Even though this bird is light and airy, and doesn't fly too fast, it's difficult to keep in frame and focus - especially using the full 200mm zoom as we see here. So, some of the action goes out of view at times.
