Quoting: Loup Garou LOOK That is a classic filter flare. It's a dimmer reflection of the sun's image. That's why you can see the eclipse occurring in the second object, it's just a reflection of the sun. That's actually fantastic proof of how filter flares work. |

The more obvious, prominent flares are from outer elements in the lens. The one closer to the sun is on an inner element. As he moves the lens to show how the flares move, this inner flare moves as well, just not as much, which you'd expect for an inner element flare. Source: I was a lens technician for 7 years. |

Just wanted to get his input though. Don't. Do. Callouts. They're against the rules. I don't have any problems with you MKPitBull, but please don't even hint at trying to get my attention in the opening post a thread like that. You can always private message me if you want my input on anything. Just don't do it this way because here's the deal, I'm not the only mod here and if another mod rules a post or a thread as a callout it can lead to misunderstandings because people will assume I was the one that removed it even if I wasn't on at the time. I get that you just legitimately wanted my input on this video, you weren't trying to bait me into a trap thread, but please do it through private messages next time so that nobodies panties get in a wad if a post gets removed. |

Just because YOU don’t believe in the Rougarou; or the Loup Garou, don’t make you safe; No ! The Constitution is a blend of 'moral certitude' -- which is one of the reasons that criminals are determined to be rid of it and We the People must be even more determined to defend it. "If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace." - Thomas Paine The only thing the Illuminati fears is an independent person who can live, eat, sleep, stay warm and defend themselves separate from Federal help. Pray that the Lord gives us more time! The End is near and time is short! A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion. ~Proverbs 18:2 For those who understand, no explanation is needed. For those who do not understand, no explanation is possible "A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle" - James Keller Checkd, Keked, and Rekt! #Kids2 |

At least spiritually I am ready. Physically... not really, but I will make due the best I can. Conspiracy Theorist is nothing more than a derogatory title used to dismiss a critical thinker. A time is coming when men will go mad, and when they see someone who is not mad, they will attack him, saying, 'You are mad; you are not like us." -- St. Anthony The Great Social Credit Loser here. |

Directly above me, northerly direction. I spend about 5 min every morning before I go to work just checking the sky out. I’d have to say it was one of the brightest I’ve ever seen.
