Lunar Eclipse*

Pittsford, NY

This is a 3-1/2 hour composite sequence of a total lunar eclipse. The blown highlights at the ends seem to frame the sequence nicely. Notice the blood red color during totality. And notice clouds and branches interfering.

2 minute shots, ISO 100, F/22, 17-40mm f/4.0L at 17mm. full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Very unusual image and one could say the highlights are blown by nature ;-)
Thank you for sharing this, it gives me a whole new perspective on an eclipse! Markjay

I love this one. It seems perfectly other-worldly. (and in saying that, I know it technically *is* but it's still the only way I can describe it.)

I've never seen a sequence like this. Very creatively done. I like it!
