Two images taken January 30, 2018 of an essentially full moon: the super blue moon (super = when a full moon is at a closest approach to Earth; blue = second full moon in the same month).
The last image: a super blue blood moon 🙂

Beautiful photos of this event. What time of night were you out there?

Thank you, Allan! The first 3 were in the early evening (5 – 6 pm) while there was still enough residual light from the just set sun. For the last one I was up at 4 am (groan) and was able to get images up to the maximum of the eclipse (about 5:30 am). Shortly after that the moon moved down the sky into fog and clouds, stopping any more photography (for me, anyway).

Rawls, these are very very very nice. I particularly like the eclipse series. The progression is very informative.

Yeah. The dampness makes it seem colder. At least there was no wind.

Thank you, Vincent. Sorry your efforts did not work out but good you got to experience it. As some say, it is not always about the photograph.
