Heath Carmody | Two Camera Heights - Supplemental Footage @heathcarmody2867 | Uploaded January 2022 | Updated October 2024, 12 hours ago.
From Observation #13 Shelter Bay Ferry (May 30th, 2021). I decided to keep this time lapse separate because it was in between heights, and a 3-way never works out as good as it sounds. This is about 2.5 hours of footage sped up very fast. This camera is my old, damaged Panasonic V180K which still takes decent but very washed out video. There is some end of observation footage from the 2 meter camera in this video, and some that I saved for the final.
My next video will further explain the point of all this and why I chose this particular observation. I'm providing some footage with clear, reasonably measurable obstruction (at times) cause by either physical blockage by water, or by refraction - specifically upward refraction, or by some other unknown effect. So I would like to see some comments from globe proponents about where the physical horizon would be if we could see it, and things to that effect. If there is not enough information to make any claims about obstruction from Earth curve, then let me know how I can improve my observations in order to show evidence for a globe - besides getting much higher and looking much farther. Plenty of people are doing and have done that!
Details:
Camera height: 4 - 5 meters
Second camera height (end footage): 2 - 2.5 meters.
Target distance: 18.5 km
Time of recording: About 1 pm to 4 pm
Conditions: Sunny, very warm afternoon. Slight breeze picked up and clouds rolled in towards the end of the observation.
About the lines: Vertical blue lines represent an angle of about 0.037 degrees or about 12 meters at that distance. Use this as a scale reference. Yellow line is a rough estimate of my camera level and a reference for mirage movement.
