March 15, 2022 - The Lunar Eclipse
I have done nothing astronomy related of late but the lunar eclipse prompted me to dust off my Cannon T5 rebel, 300 mm zoom lens, and tripod and give a go a photographing the eclipse. I had to review the camera's manual to remember how to adjust the settings for night time photography. I got a few decent shots but near totality I had trouble focusing on such a low light image so the images are a bit fuzzy. Anyway here is what I got.
The beginning
About half way
Start of the red coloration
About 3/4s eclipsed
Near totality
Totality
Others no doubt have better pictures but this my record of the eclipse. Until next time....
