2014 Lunar Eclipse

This is a Lunar Eclipse series I made on April 14/15th. Noting the orange glow on the moon. Reports out are calling it a blood moon. There’s a bit of controversy surrounding the “blood moon”. This article explains what a blood moon is and how it occurs. This video shows what happens as the Earth blocks all direct sunlight from reflecting off the Moon’s surface and instead the light passes through the Earth’s atmosphere, turning it orange.

All of these have a hazy blur on them, except one. There was a thin layer of cloud cover passing. I set up my tripod on the concrete to make the camera stable. In the last two I captured Mars in the upper right corner. My favorite one is the last one. I used my Sony DSC-RX100M2 camera to make these.
