Yeah, those are {d-word} shots. 🙂

We'll forgive you. Was just outside with my Bronica ERTsi, 250mm lens , plus the
doubler and Tri-x 400 ( 8 sec exposure) ! Wish me luck.

Another {d-word} shot:

(8:27pm PST = end of Total Eclipse):

Likely the only "Blood Moon" I get to see/photograph in my life.

Roland.

PS: Sony A850, 800 ASA, about 2" exposure.

Too cloudy where I was.

I didn't go out, considering sleep more important. I'll catch it when I make it to 75.

Cat woke me up at 4.30 AM.
Looked through the window and remembered how unimpressive and overrated a moon eclipse can be.

Taken about 2 hours after sundown, American southwest.

Now I wish I went in and got the tripod. I was fully zoomed, 1/250 at f8 for most of the shots and I could not get the red image at a shutter speed I could hold.

I was at about 8 seconds for most of my shots. Even on a tripod, the movement of the earth was apparent.

I'm near to London. Got up at 0330 for the full eclipse at 0347. My wife and I watched the moon with x8 binoculars in a clear, cloudless sky fairly low in the west change to a dull, rusty red then, at around 0410, the moon's righthand side gradually began returning to its normal bright white.

Sitting on our patio it was pretty spectacular and magical.

There's an eclipse animation here:

Terrible weather, very disappointed, but I took this during the last eclipse:

Looking above it seems like some were using very high ISO.

Nice Corran. Tells the story very well.

Here in Seattle the weather was good enough for viewing but the light polution is what it is.
Anyway, We all could see it very well.
Of all the Lunar eclipses I have stood outside waiting for this was the most pleasant and successful.

there was a super moon lunar eclipse on January 31st that could be seen well here in Saigon.

Not sure of others I see really had been that red, I'd say the colors in my photo are quite similar to what the free eye saw, not really though, the bright part of the moon, with free eye, just all is "blown highlight" 😉
