Video captured: October 31, 2021 - on a very cloudy, breezy, and overcast day - with rain drizzel off and on... An unbelievable amount of hours of work editing had to be done to correct the video and photos. The captures were so dark and grainy because of the Sun being blocked out all day that day. Hope the footage and pixs looks alright at least. Eagles Über Alles!
