2019 Super Blood Moon Tonight (early 21st January)

[BW]

Lots of brilliant pictures from this event! The biggest event her at 63,44 north and 11,04 east, was the fact that we had clear skies for the first time in a month. I managed to fire off a few rounds before high clouds obscured the latter portion of the eclipse. But it didn't matter much since my fingers started to get numb in the cold The last time I had clear skies on such an event I remember I used Provia slide film. Today my m43 gear made the task much easier.

Really superb captures, John.
Very nice Børge, and especially considering it was a non-tracked exposure.

The description of "Blood moon" seemed a bit over dramatized, color-wise. Fuji XE2s(@E.I. 1600), 300/4 AF-s lens (@ f/4)

Well I finally caught up, this is my series of images of the Blood Moon.

This is a nice or crappy photo, depending on your opinion!  I took this just as the eclipse beginning.



This a series of the build up to the full eclipse, D800 with Nikkor ai 300mm f/2.8 at 2.8 ISO 3200, I now realise I was really too high with the ISO which has resulted in rather noisy images.



This composite is after the eclipse, each exposure was at three minute intervals.



This is with the exposure adjusted for the bright parts of the moon.



After the eclipse I took some landscapes by moonlight, which was diffused by cloud which swept in almost unnoticed as the eclipse finished.





Finally, snow capped Ulpha Fell across Dunnerdale.

Robert: you moon lit landscape shots are enchanting!

[Seapy]

Thank you Frank, it's an enchanting place, I love it up there.  The lighting was surreal, it was an opportunity not to be missed, The D800 and the little 16mm f/2.8 fisheye are a good combination.  I am fortunate to live so close to such places, I just wish I had the skills to produce the goods more consistently.

Excellent job Robert!
