I have been looking forward to this total lunar eclipse ever since I read about it a month ago. I love photographing the moon! It’s challenging, frustrating, educational, and fulfilling. The last couple of times that there has been a unique moon event, I wasn’t able to photograph it; either because I wasn’t home or because there was cloud cover that ruined my view. So I was thrilled to see a clear blue sky all day Monday. It didn’t even bother me too badly that I had to stay up until 2:00 a.m. to get all the different phases of it. So here are my photos. Not as good as NASA, but I can’t afford NASA’s enormous camera lens!
