Lunar Eclipse

Vail, AZ

Image taken at 12:41:46 am Arizona time. Had to take this shot hand held laying flat on my back in the driveway because the moon was directly overhead and the tripod was not usable at the angle necessary to make the image. Canon 7D, 1.4x TC, 300 f2.8 L IS lens.


other sizes: small medium original auto

Not bad at all for a hand held shot, Jim!

I can just picture you lying on your back on the cold ground to get the shot! Been there and done that. LOL Well done under the circumstances.
I had no chance as we were under heavy cloud cover.
Best regards,
Dick:)

Terrific work, Jim, not an easy image to get with no tripod.
