Well I finally caught up, this is my series of images of the Blood Moon.

This is a nice or crappy photo, depending on your opinion! I took this just as the eclipse beginning.



This a series of the build up to the full eclipse, D800 with Nikkor ai 300mm f/2.8 at 2.8 ISO 3200, I now realise I was really too high with the ISO which has resulted in rather noisy images.



This composite is after the eclipse, each exposure was at three minute intervals.



This is with the exposure adjusted for the bright parts of the moon.



After the eclipse I took some landscapes by moonlight, which was diffused by cloud which swept in almost unnoticed as the eclipse finished. Lens used 16mm f/2.8 fisheye.





Finally, snow capped Ulpha Fell across Dunnerdale.
