[Leica] Blood Moon Eclipse practice photo

[Nathan Wajsman]

Yes, that is what I meant. I especially like the last one.
I must admit I happily slept through the eclipse.

Cheers,
Nathan

Mid-eclipse occurred when the Moon was quite low in the sky as seen from the eastern U.S., so these images capture foreground trees. In fact, they depict the whole range of distances from trees just tens of meters away, to the blue sky at tens of km, to the Moon at hundreds of thousands of km, to the planet Uranus (the blue-green dot to the left of the Moon) at hundreds of millions of km, to the stars at trillions of km.
